Alex Leftley, lead activities coordinator at Mortain Place, came up with the idea of arranging a bouncy castle from local company Defiant Sports and after many risk assessments they put their plan into action.
The sun was shining, and staff and carers assisted many residents who wanted a go, onto the bouncy castle using a slide sheet and gently bounced them, many of them it being their first time on one.
