Four residential care homes in Braintree bask in their very own ‘ray of sunshine’ when My Home Life Essex Community Association volunteer Alberto arrives to brighten their day.

For the past three years Alberto has been a regular weekly visitor to the care homes and spends his time chatting with residents, catching up on their news and sharing a joke or two.

Alberto makes the residents’ day. They love to see him and everyone feels better for a chat with him.
