Last week we teamed up with our sister Nursing Home Esmere Gardens for a wonderful trip to Cotswold Lavender Fields.

Our residents were captivated by the seemingly endless rows of lavender and the lively wildflower meadows.

Despite the heat, we were well-prepared with sun hats, parasols, sunscreen, refreshing cold drinks, and tasty choc ices.

We found a perfect shady spot to relax and take in the breathtaking views! 💜🌾
