A West Cumbrian family has chosen to show their support for the NHS through a video.

The families four children, Daniel Walker, 10, sisters Holly Graham, six and Willow Graham, three and 18-month-old Bella, from Keekle, all have pet lambs and they have painted their backs with N H S in recognition of the work that the NHS service is doing.

Mum Kerry Anne Graham said: “The children saw that a farmer had done something similar down south, but they wanted their message to be different, so they have done messages for people on a video.”

The children have bottle fed pet lambs on the small holding in a mini-flock of around 20 sheep. Daniel's lamb is called Companion, Holly’s is Patch and Willow's lamb is Pebbles. Bella also has a lamb called lily. The children issued the message: “stay home, stay safe, save lives, protect the NHS.”
