Thurso care home residents pay a visit to Paddington Bear

Residents at Pentland View Care Home enjoyed a trip to John O’Groats to see the new Paddington Bear bench.

The bench forms part of the Paddington Bear Trail - a set of 20 sculptures between Lands End and John O’ Groats - which was unveiled earlier this month.

The ladies posed for photos as they also met fellow visitors, chatting and sharing what Paddington meant to all of them.
