Residents At The Cedars Are Visited by Local Lambs
The Cedars Care Home in Bourne was full of animal mischief on Easter Monday when a they were visited by some adorable baby lambs- just three weeks old!
Residents at The Cedars Care Home were pleasantly surprised to see their new furry friends roaming around their lounge as Mill Farm paid a visit; and were thrilled to have the opportunity to bottle feed the lambs. Mill Farm is owned by a friend of resident Joy, who was instrumental in arranging the visit. She said ‘it’s so lovely to see them again, next time they can bring some mint sauce!’
Senior General Manager Rebecca Aldred said: “Our residents have really enjoyed their unusual visitors today. We knew that having the farm here would be a bit of fun for all our residents, especially as some find it difficult to go on many outings in our minibus. We are always looking for new activities for the residents and today we have seen the seen the enjoyment and the therapeutic influence animals can have on people.”
Resident Dorothy Inkley said the lambs were ‘lovely’ and was very happy to be able to share the experience with her daughter Julie. Residents, visitors and staff thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon!
