Residents have been invited to join the town's mayor councillor Roger Giles and celebrate the opening of McCarthy and Stone's new Retirement Living development - Tumbling Weir Court - on October 3.

The event will take place at the Mill Street development from 11am until 3pm and will give locals the chance to take a closer look at the complex whilst enjoying a glass of fizz and canapés.

Tumbling Weir Court features 29 one and two bedroom apartments, a shared lounge and a hotel-style guest suite for visiting family and friends.

A house manager will take care of the day-to-day running of the place and there will also be a secure entry system and 24-hour emergency call system.
