Residents and staff at Colten Care’s Abbey View in Sherborne marked a year since the start of the first covid lockdown with flowers, heartfelt messages and a one-minute silence in honour of those who have lost their lives during the pandemic.

Abbey View turned into a ‘sea of yellow’ with hundreds of daffodils, the symbol of reflection, after a large delivery of daffodils arrived from Castle Gardens garden centre.
And, in an emotional moment, residents applauded staff members for all the care given to them over the past year.

Home Manager Sarah Harper said: “It was very touching to have a round of applause for how we have all got through the year together.”
