Residents of Threshfield Court Care Centre enjoyed a special day out recently as staff organised a nostalgic visit to Wedache Farm, a local dairy farm nestled in Gisburn.

The highlight of the day was for sisters, Angela age 79 and Celia age 82, who were overjoyed to relive their childhood memories growing up on a farm.

The sisters were beaming with joy as they watched cows being milked, stroked calves, and took in the fresh countryside air. Having spent much of their lives working on dairy farm, the trip stirred up countless stories, laughter, and even a few happy tears.

Stacey Nicolson General Manager of Threshfield Court Care Centre said: “Our residents have really enjoyed their day out at the farm. Trips out in the homes mini bus are a regular event for the residents, and we always ask for ideas on where they would best like to go. To be able to make this wish come true is fantastic for our residents."
