Spring Lodge home manager Jose Simoes said: "We are thrilled to be the first official partner for Peninsula Nub News and we are looking forward to working together.

Kingsley's head of public relations, Stephen Pullinger, said: "The Nub News site is providing a fantastic service to the peninsula's community, bringing all the strengths and virtues of an old-fashioned local paper to the modern digital age.

"At this difficult time it is important to keep everyone informed what is going on in their community, and for the community to pull together as one.

"In more normal times we are delighted to host a range of community events at Spring Lodge, from fetes and fairs to barbecues and open days, and we look forward to the day when we can start doing that again.

"There is no doubt that the peninsula is a very special place and we are proud to have a presence in this wonderful community and support Shotley Peninsula Nub News."

Karl Hancock, Nub News founder and chief executive officer, said: "To have such a prestigious and highly respected company as our first principal sponsor in Suffolk is immensely exciting.

"Kingsley Health's core principles, epitomised by Spring Lodge, of being at the heart of their community and providing outstanding care for its residents, perfectly complements what we are doing at Nub News, here on the Shotley peninsula, and as we expand across the country in the right places, with the right people."
