Residents and staff recently enjoyed a special visit from a range of animals, bringing plenty of smiles and conversation throughout the day.
The visit gave residents the chance to get up close to a variety of animals, with many taking the opportunity to stroke and interact with them. The experience created a relaxed and engaging atmosphere, with people asking questions and enjoying the chance to try something different.
A lamb quickly became the standout favourite, drawing lots of attention as residents spent time holding and petting it. Staff said the gentle nature of the animal made it particularly popular, with many residents returning for another cuddle.
An owl was also part of the visit, offering a contrast to the more familiar animals and sparking curiosity among residents. Some were keen to learn more, while others were simply happy to watch and take in the moment.
Staff at the home said the visit was enjoyed by everyone involved, with residents continuing to talk about the animals afterwards.
The day was described as a real highlight, with both residents and staff making the most of the experience and already looking forward to similar visits in the future.
