Donnington House nursing home in Birdham Road is not allowing visitors to the home, nor allowing residents to leave, as a precautionary measure.

The step is being taken after a resident came into contact with someone who was showing symptoms of the virus but was undiagnosed.

Matron Heather Fox said: "Following advice from Public Health England, we have been advised to go into isolation for at least seven days."
