The visit, which took place on Sunday, was to raise awareness of dementia and to encourage more people to volunteer.
The main attraction on the day was the MG sports car model MGF 1999 1.8 VVC.

Pam Tate, of Witchford, made cupcakes especially for the occasion, as well as being in aid of Alzheimer’s Society’s Cupcake Day on June 16. The event also helped extend the celebrations for Care Home Open Day at the home which took place on June 18.
The Volunteer Bureau in Ely arranges transport for Rosemary to see her husband in the care home and more drivers are needed.
