RESIDENTS AT LEAR HOUSE ENJOY TRIP TO THE DEMENTIA VILLAGE IN BIRKENHEAD
Residents at Lear House in West Kirby recently enjoyed a trip to the Age UK Dementia Village in Birkenhead .
Built with the assistance of the ‘ Challenge Anneka ’ TV programme last year the Village is a beautiful space with shops , a cinema , a pub and a cafe .
Ailsa said : " Each of the shops contains a range of items carefully chosen to bring back memories and we had a great time looking at everything and remembering . One of our ladies played the piano in the pub and others watched a film in the cinema .
" We finished the afternoon in the café with a cup of tea and a cake playing dominoes !
" Back at Lear House we welcomed back The Owl Man ( John Hawkins ) and his friends ! We met Sam , Otis and Holly the owls again and Chrissy the skunk for the first time . Everyone enjoyed the chance to see the owls up close and to give Chrissy a cuddle ! We were able to ask questions about them and find out all about their lives . It was a great afternoon and we ’ re looking forward to seeing them again soon ."
