Yesterday we had the absolute privilege of welcoming a truly special young man with complex additional needs, who uses a wheelchair, to spend time with our alpacas.
From the moment he arrived, Sassy and Liv seemed to sense just how special he is. They made such a gentle fuss of him, and beautiful Liv carefully lay down beside his wheelchair, creating the calmest, most touching interaction. It was as though she instinctively understood exactly how to connect with him.
Even our custard cream–loving young sheep,Dolly Digestive, was completely smitten and eager to be part of the experience.
We are incredibly proud that we were able to thoughtfully adapt the visit to meet his individual needs, making sure he could fully and comfortably engage with the animals. Ensuring that everyone — regardless of the challenges they face — can experience the joy, connection and therapeutic warmth our animals bring isn’t just important to us, it’s something we care about deeply and are truly passionate about.
