THE annual open day at Oaktree Court Care Home in Wellington was a great success, made even better by a glorious sunny day.

The Mayor and Mayoress of Wellington, Gary and Bee James, opened the event for residents and lots of visitors. A barbecue, plus cakes, drinks and musical entertainment were on offer throughout the day, as well as a bouncy castle, garden games and a visit from Mr Whippy’s ice cream van.

A spokesperson for the home said: "It all made for a fabulous event enjoyed by all ages. A big thank you goes to all those who joined Oaktree, which looks forward to welcoming family and visitors at the next event."
