The Spinney brings a couple back together

Heart-touching moment at the home

The Spinney care home in Chingford has brought a romantic couple back together recently.

Stan Eager, who is 87 years old, has been living at The Spinney care home since 1 September 2013 and loves his time there, but the one thing that was missing was his wife, Barbara, 83.

On 1 May this year his dreams came true when Barbara moved into the home to be with him and they are extremely happy to be together again.

The photo captures the wonderful welcome Barbara received from Stan; a moment that the staff say touched everyone’s heart at the home.
