THE Easter Bunny made a special visit to Naomi House & Jacksplace to the excitement of those in the hospices care.

Accompanied by the Gazelle Squadron Display Team, the bunny hopped out of a helicopter on April 6 and gave out Easter Eggs to all the visitors at the hospices in Sutton Scotney.

He interacted with children and staff, and took several photographs. At the hospices, the bunny also shared Naomi House & Jacksplace Easter-themed cake before his departure.

Claire Potterton, play and activities team leader at Naomi House & Jacksplace, said: "Every year, the Gazelle Squadron Display Team volunteer their time to fly their helicopter to Naomi House and Jacksplace and bring a special guest for the children and young adults, Santa at Christmas or the Easter Bunny during Easter!

The Easter Bunny said: "Naomi House & Jacksplace is so close to my heart, it's a very special place."
