Volunteers from a Preston Muslim group have visited a local care home to share `Eid Al-Fitr festivities with elderly people and give them company in this special day.

Members of Preston’s Light Foundation have been visiting the Finney House Care Home regularly for a number of years, describing their relationship as a ‘special friendship’.

“The Chief Nursing Officer for England recently said loneliness can have a devastating impact, with evidence showing that social isolation increases the risk of premature death by around a third.
