🏋️ Joe has been to see us this morning and put us through paces with his fun 🤩 filled exercise 🏃‍♂️ session!

We started off with a bit of coordination work with catching and throwing a ball ⚽️ followed by some slow easy stretches ready for the pool noodle fencing! 🤺

What fun that was, watching everyone trying to get Joe with their noodles! Some more eager than other to land a good old ‘thump’ on poor Joe! 🤣🤭

All in the name of keeping fit! 😆🤩

☺️OUT AND ABOUT☺️

Adele had a little bit of fresh air and sunshine yesterday afternoon with a stroll down the road with her one-to-one support worker.

She enjoyed a velvety milkshake and slice of lemon drizzle cake at a local cafe; followed by a spot of retail therapy before heading home just in time before it rained.

🤩 Yesterday morning,John and Pat made a cheeky escape and visited Taverham Tea Rooms for a well deserved treat of Toasted Tea Cakes and Hot Chocolate, but 🤫 don’t tell anyone! 🤣

We had a lovely morning putting the world to rights and both John and Pat sat wondering how neither of them realised such a fab place was so close and they didn’t know… but are certainly glad they know now! I have a feeling we will be back soon 🥰

Our ladies had a lovely time sitting together and nattering away about their gardens and the flowers in them! 🥰

Sometimes, the simplest things are the most joyful! ⭐️
