Hadleigh Nursing Home linked up with a local butcher to celebrate World Food Day.

Andrew's Quality Butchers, in High Street, Hadleigh, kindly contributed locally sourced meat to the home's food festival.

Tracey Alexander, wellbeing co-ordinator at the Kingsley Healthcare run home, in Friars Road, said: "We would like to thank Andrew for supporting our event.

"We were really keen to involve a traditional local butcher's that sources its meat from our wonderful Suffolk farms."

She said many of their residents who came from Hadleigh had shopped at Andrew's so the butcher's involvement had brought back many fond memories.

The home's head chef Ashley Staples, pictured receiving supplies from Andrew, laid on dishes that tempted residents with a taste of both local and international cuisine, ranging from fish and chips to chilli con carne and Chinese sweet and sour chicken.

For afternoon tea, residents enjoyed a local buffet with Andrew's pork pies; they also enjoyed American popcorn while watching a movie.

Andrew's Quality Butchers has also been shortlisted in Babergh's 2020 Innovation Awards, along with other Hadleigh High Street businesses Battleburys and Ferguson Deli, and Challs of the Lady Lane Industrial Estate.
