The Manor in Exminster Messages to family

Messages to Family

This week, The Manor in Exminster have been sending photos of their residents holding up a messages for family. We’ve had some lovely emails and phone call back from them saying how much they loved this:

‘Many thanks to you and everyone for the loving care you give to Bett and all in your care at The Manor. I miss Bett terribly and to see her looking so well and happy has given us a great lift at a time when the news from up and down the country is so depressing. A view which will be shared by all when they get a photo of their loved ones I am sure. A big well done to all, I can imagine how stressful it must be for you and all our friends at this time and we can only say how much we admire you for your fortitude at this difficult time and this goes as well for your families who are supporting you.’

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Love to all.
