HUNDREDS of people turned out to enjoy an eggs-cellent Easter-themed community event hosted by a Worthing care home to mark the start of the holidays.
Caring Homes’ Tarring Manor welcomed nearly 300 smiling faces as it played host to the village’s annual Easter egg hunt in conjunction with the Friends of Tarring Park and Tarring Rotary Club.
Conrad Bool, customer relations manager at Tarring Manor, said: “Our relationship with the Friends of Tarring Park is a very important working relationship for us and we try to help them out as much as we can.
“We are delighted to have developed a fantastic rapport. It also helps, on a personal basis, that I like them all individually very much. It is one of the most effective and friendly Residents’ Associations that I have witnessed.”
In addition to the egg hunt, families also took part in an Easter bonnet competition, judged by Tarring Manor resident Mary Mills, who modelled her own bonnet.
The level of entries was incredibly high, with 14 prizes given out for artistry and effort.
The event also saw Easter egg vouchers hidden around Tarring Manor’s extensive gardens, stalls containing Easter cards and merchandise and even ice cream to make the most of the spring sunshine.
