Halloween Pumpkin Carving At Ingelby Care Home

THE BORO’s volunteering teens brought the spirit of Halloween to a Stockton-On-Tees care home.

Elderly residents at Ingleby Care Home, on Lamb Lane in Ingleby Barwick, enjoyed pumpkin carving with the Middlesbrough FC National Citizenship Service (NCS).

The group of 11 teenage volunteers – all aged between 15 and 17 – spent the afternoon with the residents carving ghoulish faces.

Liz Jones, Customers Relations Officer at Hill Care, which operates Ingleby Care Home, said: “We have a great relationship with the Middlesbrough FC NCS group, as they visit several of our Teesside homes throughout the year.

“It’s always a thrill for the residents when they visit. They thoroughly enjoy their company and the pumpkin carving got everyone into the Halloween spirit.”
