Patients visiting the Alan Hudson Centre in Wisbech enjoyed a visit from a pair of local Alpacas!
Alpacas, Banksey and Buster, with Krystal and Gina from Gorefield Alpacas(opens in new tab) in Wisbech, visited the Centre and garden on Tuesday 16 June 2026, to bring a few smiles to the faces of patients living with advancing life limiting illnesses. The patients had a fabulous time feeding, stroking and learning all about Alpacas.
The staff also enjoyed a very therapeutic session.
