🎄 A Festive Adventure in Town! 🎄

Our residents enjoyed a wonderful day out today! We visited the Grand Arcade for a spot of window shopping and started thinking about Christmas gift ideas 🎁✨
Then we popped into Cambridge Central Library, browsed some lovely travel books, and reminisced about our own journeys around the world 🌍📚
To finish, we relaxed with some refreshments in the John Lewis Café ☕🍰

It was a truly fun and successful day out with our amazing residents.
A big thank you to the dedicated staff who made the trip possible — and enjoyable! 💜

We’ll be doing it again soon! 🚌😊
