A HOST of Easter bonnets made by residents of a sheltered housing scheme went on show yesterday.
The seasonal millinery was on parade at Oswin Grove, in Gilling West, near Richmond.
Enhanced Care Worker and parade organiser Kathy Mullany said: "This is part of our enhanced care scheme to provide activities and foster a real sense of community here.
"Just because people are over 65 and living in sheltered accommodation, it doesn't mean they don't want to have a social life and a bit of fun."
The scheme has been up and running for a month and residents have already taken part in a singsong, formed a knit and natter club and practice yoga at a weekly class.
Future plans include watercolour painting, line dancing lessons, and improving their IT skills.
