A CARE home in Collins Green was turned into a petting zoo for the day when residents welcomed a variety of small animals into the centre off Penny Lane.
Residents at St Mary's Care Centre on Penny Lane – many who suffer from dementia, mental health and brain injuries – were joined by snakes and skunks.
The staff at the home were keen to organise for the petting zoo to set up camp knowing that stroking and holding the animals brought a lot of joy to the nature lovers among them.
