A deputy manager at a Norwich home marked 20 years’ service with an intimate party.

Sharon Wright works at MHA Cromwell House and started her career at the home as a carer in 2004.

The home arranged for a special party to mark Sharon's achievement, with a special sweet-themed cake in reference to her sweet tooth.

Colleagues who worked with Sharon in the past also came in, which was a nice surprise for her.

Speaking after the party, Sharon said: “A lot has changed in the last 20 years, but I am very happy with how the time has gone.

“Working at MHA Cromwell House is great, it's a real homely environment and I have developed some great friendships as a result of working here.

“My managers have been great, their support has helped immensely in my development.

“On my 20 years of service, I was expecting just a little announcement and a presentation, but when I saw what was arranged, I felt very proud.

“It was nice to see former colleagues and I was very happy with the cake that was prepared for me."
