Tailor makes Burns Night waistcoats in his care home
A 96-year-old retired tailor is making waistcoats for Burns Night in his care home.
Elwyn Gwynne Hughes has raised £1,400 for charity by making more than 50 of the garments for the celebration of Scotland’s national bard.
Mr Hughes, who lives in York, was stationed in Orkney for a period during World War Two.
He says that keeping active is good for his physical and mental health.
Mr Hughes has also started making special skirts for Burns Night.
