AMAZING talent emerged from a Wychbold nursing home when residents held an exhibition of their art and craft work.

Folk at Rashwood Nursing Home, Wychbold, held a two-day exhibition last week, which coincided with a cheese and wine evening for families and friends.

Originally, only resident Philip Richards was set to exhibit his collection of watercolours but soon others wanted to show their work too.

Mr Richards, aged 92, began painting when he was 80 and now boasts a 30 piece collection.

Other exhibits featured in the home's lounge included photographs of the swans in Droitwich Spa, oil paintings, knitting and handicrafts.

Matron Ann Lodge said: "Everyone was really surprised by the talent residents have.

"It proved a fun event for staff, residents and visitors."
