    A newspaper article about a farm visit by residents of Fairholms House care home. A picture included in the articule shows an elderly woman petting a small lamb. 

    "Just wanted to say thank you for allowing our residents to have such a lovely afternoon. I must admit I was a little worried how they would react but to my surprise they really enjoyed the day despite having no sun and it was a little chilly! Andrew and his wife were so welcoming and very patient with us, that little one day old lamb was photographed with every resident. The cattle were stroked and stroked and two residents even collected some eggs!!! This will talked about for days, and all want to return next year."
     
    Thank you again.
