A care home in St Ives is giving a warm welcome to the local community after registering as a ‘Warm Space’ for those who need one. 

Field Lodge, on London Road, is opening its doors to those seeking some warmth, a hot drink, or just a spot of company throughout the colder winter months, starting on Friday December 30. 

The care home will be running a film club on the last Friday of each month from 2pm until 4pm with a range of films on offer from new releases to classics. 

Home manager, Linda Martinez, said: “We’re honoured to be able to offer Field Lodge as a sanctuary in these difficult times. 

“The team here work hard to make the home a safe, comfortable and welcoming place for residents and are keen to extend this to members of the local community who perhaps are in need of some extra support.” 

She added: “I’m incredibly proud of the whole team for working hard to make this happen and would like to say a big thank you to those who continue to support us. 

“Now is our opportunity to support you in return.”
