‘Bistro Belle’ shuns retirement with care home ‘job’ – aged 86!
A retired policewoman from East Sussex has gone back to ‘work’ after finding a life of leisure isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Diana Cornwell, 86, is a resident at Hastings Court care home on The Ridge. She worked as a police officer in Penge in south London and moved to Hastings for a life by the sea when she came to the end of her career. But the desire to be useful never left her and made her restless – so the home has given her a ‘job’.
