Pets can be a great source of comfort, companionship and motivation for those around them. In many ways, contact with pets can help us live mentally healthier lives.

As we recognise World Mental Health Day, we pay thanks to our nursery mentor dog Margo who has been dressed in yellow today. She is an important asset for Hednesford Nursery school, providing valuable emotional support to the pupils and staff as she contributes to our sense of wellbeing.
