Fantastic day trips! ⭐ Our Nottingham residents had a phenomenal time recently when they went to Blackpool for the day.
Adam took it one step further, going on holiday (he called it "an activity trip") for the weekend.
When he was finished, he had visited the theme park, water park, aquarium, Madame Tussauds, arcades AND went to see the Blackpool lights!
Phew, what a weekend! Everyone was supported to enjoy Blackpool for all it had to offer, and they all had a brilliant time.
