Ducks! 🦆
Marc from our Dukeries day service had a fantastic time last week at Vicars Country Park in Mansfield after bowling.
He had a lovely picnic lunch, visited the pet shop, then took a walk around to feed the local ducks - eating right out his hand!
Country walks and outdoor trails are often some of the best activities for the people we support to get some exercise, enjoy the fresh air and get to know their local communities.
