Friend in Deed ‘Little Visitor’ session at Brooklyn House Care Home

11th Sep 2019

We were delighted with the success of the first Friend in Deed ‘Little Visitor’ session at Brooklyn House Care Home in Attleborough last Monday.

It was brilliant to see such a brilliant turnout of mums, toddlers and babies – the residents at the care home were absolutely bowled over. Everyone noticed how well the residents responded to the ‘Little Visitors’ and the staff at Brooklyn House are convinced that the sessions will bring a really positive impact, both socially and emotionally, for all involved.
We received really positive feedback from both the mums and residents – the sessions not only helps to alleviate loneliness for some of the mums, but really brought out the youth in the residents, who can’t wait for next Monday.
Aidan Tidnam, Ellie Walpole and Charlotte Ranson, from Rogers & Norton, attended and were really pleased with how well it went and to experience the joy it brought to all concerned. Charlotte, who is a solicitor in our Private Client team at our Attleborough office, will be attending on a regular basis to support the care home at the sessions.
If you are interested in taking part the residents would love to meet you and your youngsters just click going and register your little one as a visitor at the following link https://www.friendindeed.org.uk/volunteering (one form per child) and arrive on the day, bring along a couple of games/books for your little one to share.
