Hide AdChris Roby, admissions adviser at the home, feels it is important that whatever the resident's age or circumstances they don't feel disconnected to contemporary  social issues.
'˜The visit was arranged after one of our residents commented she wasn't aware of what was going on in the news. It is important our residents feel part of the community and connect  with the wider world,' said Mr Roby.Â
