Leisure Activities

Once here, people simply relax or pursue their own hobbies and interests, as and when they want to. Our lounges are the place to just relax and enjoy morning coffee or afternoon tea, looking out over the gardens.

There is always something interesting going on, and what is offered is chosen by the residents themselves. There are bi-monthly resident's meetings, chaired by the manager and the head activities co-ordinator. This is held in the main lounge, where over a cup of tea, activities are discussed, outings are planned, and suggestions are made.

Our activity organisers supervise an enjoyable programme of entertainment, which includes in-house activities, quizzes, movement to music and arts and crafts. There are regular outings to local places of interest and shopping trips can also be arranged.

Holy Communion is held on the first Tuesday in every month for those who wish to attend.

The hairdresser is available once a week for anyone wishing to have their hair done.

We have a very varied program of activities and it is entirely up to each individual whether or not they wish to join in. For those who don't enjoy group activities, we offer regular one to one sessions as well.

We also arrange regular entertainment from outside the home, for example, singing and music from an array of local entertainers.

There is a monthly Cheese and Wine Quiz evening which has proven very popular amongst the residents.
