Care home residents in Crowborough enjoyed a morning of deep conversation as they welcomed local school pupils to the care home.
Heather View, located on Beacon Road in Crowborough played host to pupils from years seven to ten from The Beacon Academy to join residents for the special gathering, which saw the two generations coming together to share their problems and learn from one another’s life experiences.
