Residents of a Chipping Norton care home enjoyed a day out to a heritage railway station.

The trip was organised by staff at Southerndown Care Home for the monthly Men's Club event.

The home's general manager Arlene Acuavera said: "All the gentlemen had been asking about us setting up a day out for them to see the steam trains.

"Our fantastic team arranged it all for them and took them out for the day and even stopped for lunch in the café at Toddington.

"It's so rewarding to be able to fulfil the lives of the people we help and care for."

The residents went to Toddington Station, which is part of the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Steam Railway, where they were able to enjoy the platform views, look at the steam trains, and learn about the history of the station.

The care home, run by Barchester Healthcare, organises a varied life enrichment programme to keep residents active and engaged.

This includes physical, mental, and spiritual activities tailored to the residents' interests and abilities.

The home provides nursing, residential, and respite care.
