Nadia Riley, a student at Rochdale Sixth Form College
A Rochdale student has been using her passion for baking to put smiles on the faces of hundreds of care home residents during the coronavirus pandemic.
After hearing stories about older people missing out on visitors during the first lockdown in April, Nadia Riley, 17, decided to try and cheer them up, baking cakes at home and delivering them to grateful residents.
She didn’t stop there: over the last nine months she’s made and delivered over 5,000 tasty cakes and sweet treats to 15 residential care homes.
