Our two passionate Activity Coordinators keep our residents active and entertained with a fun-packed calendar. We focus on enabling personal fulfillment for each individual and supporting each person’s choices, interests, and hobbies. Activities include gardening club, our new choir, arts and crafts, bingo, quizzes, church services, and personal support from our Chaplain who is employed at Belvedere Manor. We regularly invite external entertainers into our home. We like to keep it varied and have recently enjoyed concert bands, accordionists, singers, saxophonists, and a play performed by the local college. 'Elvis' has visited and Wild Bill is a regular resident favourite getting residents up and dancing. We have our own minibus and regularly go out on trips to the seaside, museums, the theatre, for a drink at a local pub, out for lunch, shopping, or to the lights at Blackpool. We also join the weekly dementia café at Nelson Library. Our residents let us know what they want to do, and we do our best to make it happen for them. And we love any excuse to put on a themed event. |
