Capel Hendre care home Residents take a trip down memory laneResidents at Llys Newydd care home in Capel Hendre, Carmarthenshire enjoyed a trip down memory lane as the National Library in Wales provided them with some nostalgic Welsh materials.

Llys Newydd was delighted to receive some bilingual literature, photographs and DVDs which showed Wales through the ages, highlighting how agriculture, buildings and towns have changed over the years. 

The kind gesture created some brilliant discussion amongst Residents and Colleagues in the home, with many sharing memories of how Wales looked when they were growing up.

Catrin Hooper, Home Manager at Llys Newydd, said: “We are so grateful to the library for giving our Residents this opportunity. It’s so lovely to hear the conversations prompted by the photos and to hear people’s fond memories of times gone by.”
