Easter is a time of joy and celebration, and what better way to spread joy than by donating Easter Eggs to local families and children? This year, Ben and his colleagues at E Turnbull and Son Funeral Directors came together to make a difference in their community by donating over 100 Easter Eggs for us to distribute.

Staff have delighted in handing out eggs to our residents in supported accommodation, to children and families in our nursery, to children in our holiday activities provision and to young people in our local youth groups. Our staff team at YMCA Day Nursery decided to amp up the fun level and created an Easter Egg Hunt for the children to take part in around their outdoor nursery garden. Much fun was had by all!
