Activities
We offer residents a range of activities that appeal to them, regardless of interests and abilities. While participation in these events is of course optional, doing so will promote social contact, mental stimulation, and—most importantly—fun for our residents. From group activities to small task groups, and one-on-one interactions, there’s something for everyone. Our Lifestyles Coordinator ensures monthly meetings are held with residents to ensure the activities we offer are what they want.
Throughout the homes there are resources and materials to engage and entertain our residents. The following activities are firm favourites across our homes.
- Quizzes
- Word Games
- Jigsaws
- Poetry & Literary Appreciation
- Audio Books / Story Telling
- Documentary & Discussion
- Talks from external experts (Gardening etc)
