A CARE home in Falmouth got into the Christmas spirit recently with its very own Christmas lights switch on. 

Lighting up time got a whole new meaning at Falmouth Court Care Home as the community came together to see the home’s Christmas lights switched on for the very first time this Christmas.

Staff and residents at Barchester’s Falmouth Court care home, in Falmouth, got in the Christmas spirit by inviting the community to come and join in with staff and residents who all gathered in the home’s lounge for the occasion.
