Her mother, Ann Neale, 82, who has severe dementia and has also been suffering from Covid-19, is a resident at Mildenhall Lodge, which is operated by Care UK.
Mrs Barber said: I am hoping to visit this week. I am so excited and really can t wait to hold Mum s hand, and I m also excited for all the other people who will be able to see their loved ones.
However, she said: I am very disappointed that it s only going to be one 30-minute visit a week. Before Covid, I always used to go three or four times a week and stay for three or four hours each time.
