LOVE was in the air when children from Croft Early Years put their creative skills to the test to make Valentine's Day cards for their friends at Holcroft Grange care home in Culcheth.

Holcroft Grange and Croft Early Years have been working together to enable the children and residents to join in with a variety of activities and events over the past six months.

"The cards were delivered and warmly received by the residents," said Helen Bennett, from Croft Early Years.

"We just wanted to let everyone know we were thinking about them on this special day."

The team are hoping to develop this further as Croft Early Years has recently applied for lottery funding.
