A MALTINGS firm has brought some festive cheer to residents at Acorn Village and Long Furrow.

Edme, in Mistley, delivered malt loaves to the residents and staff.

Baker Richard Ball made the special visit to present the gift.

He also got the opportunity to chat with the residents and staff.

Kate Williams, commercial director at Acorn Village said, “It was great to have Edme’s technical baker come and visit us.

“As a charity, we rely heavily on fundraising to support our philosophy ‘Life is for Living’ so anything that helps us raise our profile and show the work we do to bring new experiences to our residents is very much appreciated.”
