My Dear New Friend
BackToday we’re sharing a totally brilliant letter writing idea from Luke’s wife Alice called @mydearnewfriend. It began with her and Luke’s children sending chatty letters and drawings to their local care home addressed to ‘My Dear New Friend’. A few days later the care home manager called to day how much joy the letters had given the residents.
