Northamptonshire Residents thrilled with Christmas cards from FranceThere was festive cheer in the air at HC-One’s Acacia Lodge in Irthlingborough, Wellingborough as Residents received their own personal Christmas cards from French schoolchildren.

Each Resident was sent their own card, detailing the children’s experiences growing up in France and telling stories about their life, hobbies and interests.

One Resident said: “How lovely of them. Their English is really good.”

The cards came at a perfect time and proved to many Residents that you can make new friends at any time not matter the circumstances.

Another Resident at the home said: “It really cheered me up to receive my card all the way from France.”

The Residents can’t wait to reply to their new pen pals over in France but for now they are cherishing the stories and kind messages sent to them.
