Care home residents visit Yeadon Dam

Staff and residents from Barchester’s Cookridge Court care home had a fantastic time visiting Yeadon Dam where they all enjoyed the first glimpse of this month’s warmer weather coming in.

Residents and staff had a brilliant time taking a stroll around the park and enjoying a picnic by the lake, taking in the beautiful views.

Activities Co-ordinator, Laura said: “We absolutely love being able to take our residents out and about to visit parks that are very local to us, it makes us so happy to be able to access venues like this. It has been a fantastic day and we’ve all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.”

Elizabeth, resident at Cookridge Court said: “The park was just a short ride in the mini bus and was such a lovely place to enjoy our lunch time picnic and just watch the world go by”
