Moorlands MP Karen Bradley paid a visit to Richard Lawson and his team recently at the Abbey Court Care Home in Leek.

Karen was given a tour of the facilities and Richard updated the Moorlands MP on how they had managed to cope over the Covid pandemic.

Mrs Bradley said: "It is so nice to be able to do physical visits again and having made sure I tested negative for Covid, it was lovely to visit Richard Lawson and his team at Abbey Court Care Home recently to hear about how they have coped over the course of the pandemic.

"It was especially nice to learn how they managed to do visits by building a new room with a different exit where family could come and sit and talk to the resident through a screen."

Richard also explained some of the issues they are currently facing which Karen said she will pass on to the right people and organisations.
