24.01.2022 Last month our residents went on a few bus trips lead by our great Diversional Therapists. Last months favourite trips were a charted scenic bus trip down to Kingston Beach and Howden and then a smaller group bus trip that went for a look around the Botanical Gardens on a beatiful Sunny day. These bus trips allow all of our residents to get out and about if they wish.
