Young woolly visitors brought spring joy to residents of an Eastbourne care home when they visited for a cuddle recently.

Hazel and Ash were the perfect guests at Beechwood Grove care home on East Dean Road, keeping laps and carpets clean thanks to their nappies!

The home, which offers personalised residential, nursing, memory and respite care for up to 61 people, is well-used to furry and feathery visitors, including Bodhi the canine carer and their in-house family of chickens. Animal therapy is known to lower blood pressure and encourages relaxation, promoting wellbeing among the residents.

While Beechwood Grove has been caring for its feathered residents for almost a year now, Lifestyles Manager, Catherine Morgan, said the lambs brought a different kind of joy.
