Lymington Carnival 2017 was a glorious day!
Thanks to everyone who participated and all those who supported the procession and the fete.


Congratulations to everybody that took part in the Carnival Procession - a fantastic effort made by all. The Carnival Queen and Carnival Princess were transported around the town in a RIB provided and driven by BHG Marine. It was fabulous for everyone taking part to see so many supporters lining the route around town.
A community event run by the Lions Club of Lymington and Brockenhurst, this year celebrating 100 years of the Lions Club International, chose the theme "100 Years of Musicals".
Colten Care were delighted to have supported the Lymington Carnival and Fete for the 4th year running. Staff, residents and families dressed as Mary Poppins and stepped in time along the procession, with penguins, umbrellas, chimney sweeps and other characters alongside Mary herself.
Colten Care arranged a VIP roadside viewing area for their residents, giving them the 'best seats in the house' to safely and comfortably watch the Carnival procession. Take a look at some more great photos of Carnival Day here: http://www.coltencare.co.uk/carnival
