Himley park is back open to visitors after a flock of sheep safely returned home A GROUP of unauthorised visitors to Himley Hall and Park were left looking a bit sheepish this morning after invading the picturesque site. The park gates had to be hastily closed after a flock of adventurous sheep wandered unexpectedly into the grounds. Staff on site quickly got into shepherd mode and rounded up the 250-strong flock who had wandered into the park from a neighbouring field when the electric fence containing them broke down. The park was briefly closed to visitors to protect the sheep and their lambs who seemed to enjoy wandering among the recently blooming bluebells.

By Tracey Rees, chair of Healthwatch Oxfordshire Firstly, I’d like to thank all the carers that took time out of their very busy lives to share their experiences with us about what it is like to provide care and support to someone in their own home. We are currently reading through everything you told us before we publish a detailed report, with recommendations on what needs to change, in the new year.
Healthwatch Oxfordshire chair Tracey Rees. But from what we’ve read so far, we’re struck by the sheer determination shown by carers over the last few months to do their very best for their clients in incredibly difficult circumstances.
