We visited Martin House Hospice for their sibling day, the theme was their 25th birthday so we dressed up looking like we were going to a party.

Then we visited 2 inner city Leeds nurseries, the children and adults were thrilled, particularly with Zoom, our continental giant rabbit.

Ryedale Special Families from Malton braved the snow, they spent a fun and action packed day with us.

Katie enjoyed her 7th birthday here.

Several individual families visited during the 2 weeks holiday.

We were made to feel very welcome when we visited Sycamore Care Home in Ripon.

Tracey Oliver from York organised an Easter Party here, primarily for the families of Martin House Hospice and Hob Moor Oak Special School. It was very well attended and so a huge thank you to Tracey and her family and friends. Also thanks to Caroline, Music Therapist from Martin House, who saved the day when the heavens opened! by playing her guitar.

Madeline came to see us, with Age UK, she was 100 on the 5th April, our oldest visitor, what amazing lady.
