Age UK Northamptonshire’s Day Care Coordinator Aimie Boyd arranged for an extra special guest to visit the charity’s day centre in Towcester on Monday 15th December.  By special arrangement, and thanks to Zarnia, the well-behaved donkey was revealed from behind a curtain – to the astonishment of everyone who said they were expecting a jovial man in a red and white suit.

The visit by Defor Donkey (yes, really) topped off a fabulous Christmas party for day care clients at Leeson Court.  They had all taken part in a carefully crafted Pantomime “reading performance”, which is why they and Aimie and her team were kitted out in Pantomime accessories.  And there was an extra round of applause for Linda, driver Tom and Helen [pictured] for getting into the Panto spirit and making the day so enjoyable for everyone.

The day centre at Leeson Court is open Mondays and Thursdays 10am to 3pm and there are spaces for more people to join.
