| Activities Are So Important |
|---|

Our care home organises and arranges a variety of opportunities for our residents to enjoy daily activities in our home and in the local community. We work in partnership with the National Association for Providers of Activities for Older People (NAPA) and encourage activities that enhance our resident's lifestyle, health and wellbeing. Residents preferred activities, interests and abilities are discussed when they move in and an agreed plan ensures that these requests are fulfilled (wherever possible). Our resident's suggestions for activities also help shape the planning process. We organise supervised day trips to leisure facilities and places of interest as well as social events in the home, including themed restaurant evenings, arts and crafts, quizzes and regular entertainers. |
