Heritage is a vital aspect of any nation’s identity. In Great Britain, it encompasses a rich history, culture, and traditions that have evolved over centuries. As our world modernises, the importance of heritage become even more pronounced. The connection to the past provides a foundation upon which future generations are built. The stories of those who came before us can guide future decisions and this interplay between the past and future is essential for fostering a cohesive society.

Today, at Tyspane Care Home we were joined by local resident James Bennett, James is passionate about the history of Braunton, and extremely knowledgeable about its history. James delivered a wonderful presentation including photographs of Braunton past and present for residents, families, friends, professionals, and community.
