Worthing's mayor and deputy mayor joined residents at Hollywynd Residential Home for their Christmas party.

The home, in St Botolphs Road, was pleased to welcome mayor Henna Chowdhury and her mother, as well as deputy mayor and mayoress Jim and Gina Deen.

The party saw the return of singer Debbie Ringwood, who had visited the home earlier in December to sing for resident 'Miss D' on her 101st birthday.
