This beautiful cow, Sabeesha the Mystic Moo, is adorned with elaborate horns, decorations, textiles, pom-poms and bells. She makes mooo-sic where ever she goes.
Developed during a series of workshops led by Beverley Carpenter and Penny Sobr, with older residents of the Cambridge Manor Care Home, the group used some familiar skills and lots of new ideas. Everyone learned how to make crafty and gorgeous pom-poms, as well as her sparkly headgear and fetlock bracelets! Adored by the community at the care home, she will be making her way to back to the residents later in the year. In the meantime she is receiving visitors in the beautiful setting of The Cow-munity Temple together with Trash Art Moo and mini moo at the Grafton Centre.
Cambridge Manor is an established purpose built home delivering expert residential, nursing and dementia care to support residents requiring care and their families.
