Activities at Bryn Ivor Lodge Care Home

Activities are an integral part of life at our care home. We want to ensure that the people we support have as much fun as possible during their time with us, so it’s important that our activities programme is created with the interests of residents in mind. Our skilled Activities Coordinators bring a certain uniqueness to the home that can’t be found anywhere else, and which is reflected in the activities they organise.

Anna Przybylska

Lead Activities Coordinator

Hello, my name is Anna and I am the Lead Activities Co-ordinator in Bryn Ivor Lodge.

I have a degree In Tourism & Hotel Management, with specialisation in Organising Events & Activities’. I have also finished several courses and training to be able to deliver excellent activities that would work best in care settings.

I have begun my career as Activities Co-ordinator over 15 years ago and gained really good experience working in various care settings.

I am very compassionate about my job and I take great pleasure in helping others and seeing people happy. My main priority is to provide activities tailored to the needs of our Residents. I always make sure all our Residents feel included and interested in the activities our home provides. Nothing is too much trouble for me and I hope our Residents and their family and friends will spend many memorable moments enjoying the activities and events we provide.

In December we took our residents to the lovely Cardiff Winter Wonderland.

They had a lovely time enjoying the stalls that supplied lovely chocolate marshmallows, candy floss and pic and mix. The Big wheel  and skating was allowed but they preferred to keep  their feet on solid ground!
