A Bury nurse was surprised with a baby shower on her driveway after her plans were ruined amid the coronavirus lockdown.
Linzi Leigh received an invite to her 'socially distant baby shower' on Wednesday (April 22) outside her home on Cedar Avenue, Whitefield.
She was met by a group of kind-hearted neighbours who had decorated her car with pink balloons and a banner.
The 31-year-old was even treated to afternoon tea - complete with alcohol-free bubbly.
Ms Leigh had two baby showers planned before the arrival of her baby girl, due next week.
The first was with family and friends and the second with colleagues, who are working on the front line at Royal Bolton Hospital 's COVID-19 ward.
Ms Leigh said she was completely taken aback by her neighbours' kindness.
She said: “It was lovely because everything else has been ruined by lockdown.
“My neighbours are sat at the end of my driveway - we’ve been playing games like Mr and Mrs.
“It’s scary being pregnant throughout all this, I’m nervous and excited, it’s a lot of different emotions.
“I’ve not been able to do any of the things I did with my first born.
“It’s such a lovely thing for them to do, especially missing out on everything you would normally do at the end of a pregnancy, like going to the shops for last minute things.
“I was just so taken aback, I cried. I was so emotional.”
