It's a Wacky World Book Day! ✨📖
What better excuse to dress up? We celebrated World Book Day today, including at our Old Fire Station Day Service and our residence in Bolsover.
Staff and service users both dressed up, and the Old Fire Station even had a visit from James at Whitegates, showing us his foxy costume! 🦊
Residents in Bolsover also decided to celebrate, with Lee bringing back his very own Emu and Rod costume, and a bit of Mary Poppins too! 🌂
