Hide AdNicci Parish, activities co-ordinator at The Poets, said: "Bob kindly came along to wish her a happy birthday. She was very surprised but delighted with Bob's visit to her on her birthday."
Bob was back at the home two days later to open its summer fayre, which raised £364 for Billy & Beyond, a community interest company founded by Nicci to increase drug safety awareness in young people.
