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.

Life at Brampton View Care Home
Dancing with the little ones
The children from Kingsthorpe Grove School entertained Brampton View again with their dancing, chatting and reading. They are so sweet and we love their visits.
Move More, Feel Better sessions
Bob Allen, a local Osteopath, holds a weekly exercise class at Brampton View to help residents strengthen key parts of the body which assist with movement and balance. We do seated or standing exercises on the ankles, legs, hips, back, shoulders, neck and wrists. As well as improving general mobility, continued strengthening of these areas should reduce the risk of falls, and reduce injury if a fall does occur. Residents and staff all feel better after our Friday afternoon sessions with Bob.
Jean's visitor from Germany
Jean was over the moon to see her granddaughter Susy for the first time in over two years. Susy lives in Germany and it was a 16-hour drive to Northampton. They were so happy to see each other again and had a lot to catch up on as they sat together in the cafe area at Brampton View.
Ice lollies all round
On the hottest day of the year so far (it's only May!) we made our own healthy lollies to keep us cool at Brampton View.
World Cocktail Day
We couldn't let World Cocktail Day pass without making some delicious, fruity cocktails of our own at Brampton View.
Story time
When Kingsthorpe Grove School visits we see the most wonderful interaction between the children and Brampton View residents, especially at story time.
