Home manager Brigid Sedour said: “We are very much looking forward to showing Gloria Hunniford what a modern, purpose-built home can offer to residents.

“We have been open just a few weeks and are already making friends with neighbours and local groups, becoming part of the Bexhill community.”

Guests will be invited to enjoy music from the Sussex String Quartet during lunch, which will be prepared by the home’s chefs.

They will also be able to take advantage of complimentary nail and hair treatments in the salon.
