A popular nursery group is to close after 20 years.
Founder Lyn Mann, 56, is closing the group, which she has run from her home in Old Road, Frinton, due to ill health.
She said: "I have had the most wonderful children and the most wonderful support from parents. I have loved every minute of it."
Helpers Celia Lacey and Valerie Fogg, who have been with Mrs Mann from the start, are also calling it a day.
Hundreds of youngsters from the area have attended the group over the years.
The final day will be Friday, July 11, when a teddy bears' picnic is planned for children, staff and parents
