Grundy Hub's Special Visitors

To celebrate Love Your Pet Day, a few of us took our pets to meet some lovely people at the Grundy Hub!

We took:

We love our pets as they bring us joy & they are good for us - they

• encourage us to exercise & socialise through walks
• can lower our blood pressure
• improve our cognitive functions, such as remembering and attention
• help manage loneliness, stress & depression.

Whilst at the Grundy Hub, we enjoyed listening to each other's stories and memories about everyone's furry friends. Most of us grew up with pets and couldn't imagine a life without them, whereas some people hadn't had a pet in years but to see how happy they were to interact with our pets was the highlight of the afternoon.

Everyone loved meeting our pets & the animals loved it just as much!
