Last Wednesday we had a visit from a Supported Education School Group of mostly kids with limited sight. The Students put on a fantastic array of quizzes for them in the Learning Room and then they took them on a guided tour of the Centre. Unfortunately I was requested not to post anything on Social Media, but the kids had a fantastic time. Here's some pics of our Residents on the day.
