We offer the latest technology as well as sensory engagement to nurture the wellbeing of our residents. With a wide variety of tailored activities and events we make sure our residents have the best physical, mental, spiritual and social stimulation, all bespoke to them.

Messing about on the water

Regular outings are just one aspect of our life enrichment program and all the trips we take are at the request of the residents. Our monthly activities calendar boasts a range of outings and entertainment.

Our residents were so pleased that the sun shone, as they had been waiting a long time to be able to enjoy the benefits of the Wheelyboat experience. Woolverstone Project provides enjoyment on the water, without the provision of accessible boats, disabled people are mostly denied experiences that able-bodied people take for granted.

Playing your cards right!

Cards were on the table at South Chowdene this afternoon, and the competition was fierce!

Our ladies were fully focused, pulling their best concentration faces as they battled it out for victory. There was plenty of teamwork, lots of laughter, and, as always, kindness all around. That said, helping each other was great… but winning was even better!

A wonderful afternoon filled with fun, friendship, and just a little healthy competition. Who do you think was crowned card champion today?

Celebrating Carers Week

What a wonderful day we have had celebrating Carers Week at South Chowdene!

Thanks to the generosity of the family of one of our much-loved resident C.W who sadly passed away, funds were donated to ensure that our amazing staff could be treated during this special week. Their kindness allowed us to bring everyone together and create such a lovely atmosphere, and we are incredibly grateful for their thoughtful gesture.

Staff, residents, relatives and members of our community came together to enjoy a beautiful buffet, shared memories and spend quality time with one another. For those who couldn’t make it, don’t worry – there is still plenty left to enjoy!

We would also like to say a huge thank you to #Barchester for the wonderful chocolate gift box, which we will all be sharing together. Such thoughtful gestures are truly appreciated.
