Activities & Good Food

Activities

We have a planned activity almost every weekday. The home has a separate budget of £10,000 per annum to employ outside agencies to come in for a dedicated activity and as a result, it is unusual to cancel. Residents decide on the activities they enjoy and who to employ again.

Forthcoming events are displayed on the residents’ notice board.

Regular visits by Sarah Povey and her voice and movement therapies

Incare Services, who provide reminiscence therapy are always well attended. they also chair the residents’ meetings where suggestions such as destinations for mini bus outings and specialised entertainment, are discussed.

Hobbies such as garden club, sewing, crochet, knitting and other indoor activities etc. are all encouraged, and we are open to any other suggestions. Relatives are welcome to join in or help with any of the activities. (Cost of hobbies’ equipment and materials are usually met by the home but sometimes residents are asked to make contributions.)
