Activities at Brampton View Care Home

Activities are the cornerstone of a wholesome home experience, and our Activities Coordinators are always putting their creative minds to the test by organising new and exciting social events for residents to partake in. Of course, we take into account the likes and dislikes of those we support, so if someone doesn’t feel like trying something new, there will always be something on offer to reflect their personal interests. For the people who may just prefer some peace and quiet instead, we also offer one-to-one time that can be enjoyed with a nice cup of coffee or just a simple chat – whatever they desire.

Beer Tasting

What better way to end our week than with beer tasting. We sampled a selection of beers and lagers accompanied with some nibbles and chose our favourites. This was such a fun activity for all involved and even got us singing some of our favourite songs! We have had some requests for gin tasting next time.

A visit from the Lollypop Ponies

This week we had a wonderful surprise for our residents, a visit from the lollipop ponies! Our residents were thrilled and a little stunned when the ponies walked into their bedrooms for some cuddles and a look around! We spend the time enjoying their company and remembering time spent with animals when we were younger and pony and donkey rides on the beaches on holidays.

Betty was surprised by her fellow residents and all her immediate family for the event. We had an afternoon of party games including pass the parcel, tin can alley and balloon games.
