Activities

Poetry

Many of our residents enjoy the experience of reading or being read to. Each home has a resource library of books and poetry consisting of everything from Pam Ayres to Wordsworth.

Reminiscence

Memories and reminiscence sessions are encouraged and enjoyed by our residents. Each home has a large resource library of books, postcards, laminated photographs, magazine articles and advertisements to encourage participation and stimulate discussion around various interesting topics.

Games and Quizzes

As well as encouraging social interaction and mental stimulation, games and quizzes can be really great fun. Carpet bowls, skittles and quoits are played regularly for gentle exercise, as well as word games, crosswords and quizzes of all kinds to encourage mental activity.
We also offer a variety of card games, jigsaw puzzles, dominoes, snakes and ladders, draughts and ludo, as well as good old bingo.
