Elderly residents in Ludlow have been given Christmas goody bags.
425 bags were handed out by the town council to those in local care homes and delivered to individual residents.
Each of the candy striped bags included Romeo’s Christmas card, a festive message from the town council, a painted wooden Christmas decoration, some chocolates, sachets of Fairtrade hot chocolate, Fairtrade biscuits, a mince pie, an environmentally friendly cracker, and two miniature festive drinks.
Mayor of Ludlow, Councillor Tim Gill said, ‘There have been lots of wonderful messages of thanks, and each and every message is very much appreciated by all at Ludlow Town Council. A very Merry Christmas to you all.’
