Clients, families and staff gathered at The Shielings to celebrate Sherborne Connect’s 25th anniversary with an afternoon tea. Clients made decorations and cakes, creating a colourful spread for the party. The Shielings was opened on 29 July 1993 by the former chair of Dorset County Council, Pat Hymer, and has been offering a service to the people of Sherborne and surrounding village communities ever since. Clients have described the relaxed day service as a ‘home from home’ and enjoy a variety of activities that help to promote independence and enhance wellbeing.
