Cumbria Care is appealing for people to send Christmas cards to their residents this festive season.
For the first time since April there are no Cumbrian care homes experiencing a COVID-19 outbreak. The good news comes as homes prepare to welcome back visitors, meaning residents can once again meet with family and friends.
Care homes in Cumbria continue to be on the frontline of the battle against COVID-19 in Cumbria, but say support from the county council and local NHS is making a difference.
Health and social care leaders in the county will be clapping for all the carers working in Cumbria this Thursday evening, in recognition of the exceptional work they are doing to support our most vulnerable residents.
As of today (17 March) Cumbria Care, the council's in-house care provider, is restricting visitors to its 23 Residential Care homes in response to the ongoing COVID-19 epidemic.
