Community lunch aims to put a stop to lonely Christmas in Ringmer
Residents met for Christmas lunch in Ringmer on December 25 to try to make sure no one spent the day alone.
More than 35 people shared a meal at Ringmer Village Hall in an effort to tackle loneliness during the festive period.
Guests enjoyed a three-course lunch and quizzes and singing led by Daphne Starnes at the event.
