Patients recovering from Covid-19 were among those who received a festive treat from a hospital s Friends group.
The Friends of North Walsham War Memorial Hospital played Santa Claus for staff and patients at the site, but its traditional December visit was understandably different this year.
The Friends normally visit the ward and hand over the presents personally to those being cared for, and the staff looking after them.
But this year they had to do a doorstep delivery and leave staff to safely distribute the treats, which include puzzle books, chocolates, biscuits, shower gels and soap.
