Harrogate charity launches 'special moments' box
Elderly care charity Harrogate Neighbours is helping people in the district celebrate special occasions by selling 'afternoon tea' boxes and added extras delivered to their door.
The boxes cost £9.95 and include a selection of home-made cakes as well as ham and cheese sandwiches.
The charity is also providing added extras, such as flowers and balloons, to help create memorable moments.
Shirley and Mick Flynn will celebrate their 50th Valentine’s Day together this week and will be the first people to receive a complimentary ‘Special Moments’ box on February 14.
The couple were both born and raised in Harrogate and have been married for 46 years. In 2018, they moved into Harrogate Neighbours' extra care facility The Cuttings, where they receive extra support from carers.

£1 from every box sold will be donated to Resurrected Bites, which supports families in Harrogate, Knaresborough, Nidderdale and Ripon affected by the pandemic with food parcels.
Speaking on behalf of Harrogate Neighbours, CEO Sue Cawthray said:
To order your Special Moments box in time for Valentine’s Day, call Harrogate Neighbours on 01423 888777.
