A KIND-HEARTED six-year-old girl has helped her older friends receive support for going on days out together.
Taylor-Paige Caldwell, from Tyldesley, is a regular visitor at Hourigan House Care Home in Leigh, where her mum Abbie works.
The Holy Family Catholic Primary School pupil enjoys visiting the residents and playing bingo with them.
With the festive season approaching, Taylor-Paige decided she wanted to do something to help her older friends.

Carer Abbie, 25, said: "Taylor-Paige wanted to get all the residents Christmas presents.
As this would cost too much money we talked about the idea of running a football card competition to raise funds for them."
Two competitions were set up in which £50 was awarded to each of the prize winner and the remaining £80 was put into a pot for the residents
The money will be used for the home's "comfort fund" to go towards paying for outings for the residents.
