Residents at a nursing home have been busy making autumn chutney.

At Bay Court Nursing Home, in Morton Road, the residents combined their own traditional recipes to create the chutney.

Using organic apples from the home's garden, the residents were able to create the chutney as a gift for family and friends.

A spokesman for the nursing home said: "Creating ways for them to feel that they still have something to offer society is what we do best."

The chutney has been made in small batches, from a variety of recipes.
