Blooming lovely day out!
Police museum
Here at Ouse View, we had the lovely David here with all the interesting facts and acquired pieces of police history, teaching our residents new things and letting them hold and feel the clothes and restraints that police used once upon a time, David even brought in a few hats and cloaks for the residents to try on.
Mobile organ by J Rymers
Our residents enjoyed a lovely afternoon listening to a mobile organ that was brought to us by J Rymers, playing some classical music, and our residents reminiscing about the simpler days. The residents were intrigued and absolutely loved the sound of the organ and enjoyed watching the little figures move with the sound of the tune.
Soft Paws Therapy Dog
Today our residents enjoyed a lovely morning of relaxation and spending some well-needed time with Ernie, a Newfoundland and poodle mix dog who came to visit all the residents and every one of them enjoyed his company, all thanks to Steve Shallow who raised an amazing therapy dog.
A Tea Dance with Colin
Our residents absolutely love it when Colin visits for one of his tea dances. Colin never fails to get everyone in the mood with his fantastic music, creating a joyful atmosphere that brings back so many playful memories for so many.
