A PLAQUE honouring the founder resident of a Winterbourne care home was unveiled by the mayor of Salisbury on Thursday.

Cllr Bobbie Chettleburgh was invited to Winterbourne Care Centre to celebrate its success following its recent opening and to unveil the plaque for Thomas Ryan.

Centre manager Stewart McGinn said: “Since opening only a few months ago we have already had lots of people from the local area come in to see the home and to inquire about places for loved ones, and rooms are filling up fast,” he said.
