Activities at Caldy Manor Care Home
Our Activities Coordinators work together to provide daily activities suited to the tastes of residents. We encourage those we support to continue with any hobbies whilst they stay at home. We also hold group activities, such as exercise to music, sing-alongs, craft sessions and visits to local places of interest. There are also evening events, including cheese & wine evenings and race nights. We keep families up-to-date through our newsletter and notices that can be found across the home. Family and friends are always welcome to join in!

Life at Caldy Manor Care Home
Summer Fayre
We had a wonderful day at our summer fayre. We had a 15 piece ukulele band come to perform for us followed by our regular singers the Gee Jays. We had tombola, bric a brac, cake and drink stall and games for the children. All money raised is to go towards some lovely activities for the residents. It was so nice to see friends, family and people form the community coming to together to enjoy music, food and to share a wonderful afternoon together.
St Bridget’s Baby Group
Our monthly visit from St Bridget’s baby group is getting bigger with each visit. We thoroughly enjoy the visit and we get to know each other a little more each time. Whilst the weather was on our side, parents and babies ventured out into our lovely gardens and residents enjoyed watching the little ones enjoy the sun.
Llandudno trip
We had a wonderful day exploring the beautiful countryside in North Wales. We set off around 11AM and arrived at 12.30. We ventured up the Great Orme in our minibus and stopped off at the top for our lunch. It was very windy so we ate our lunch in the bus. When the wind settled we went into the visitor centre which was lovely to learn about the history of the area. After that we travelled through Rhos on Sea, Towyn and Rhyl and getting back to Caldy Manor around 5 PM. It brought back some wonderful memories for our residents of the time they bought their children on their holidays in north Wales.
Making fruit kebabs
The residents got into the summer mood by making fruit kebabs. The residents enjoyed showing off their creative skills by making the a variety of fruit kebabs and used this activity to reduce social isolation within the home by taking the treats into residents rooms to brighten their day.
Chester zoo
We went on a lovely trip to Chester Zoo. We began the day with a picnic at Sandy Lane in Chester where we spent time watching the boats pass as we ate our lunch. We then made our way to the zoo. The residents enjoyed seeing all the animals, the penguins and the lions were a big hit.
Narrowboat trip from Chirk to Trevor
We went out for the day with Wirral community narrowboat trust on a narrow boat with 8 residents and 4 members of staff. This experience was beneficial to the residents as they spent a day in the local community interacting with nature and strengthening bonds between both the residents and staff. We spent 6 hours exploring the canals going through two tunnels and two aqueducts and enjoyed lunch on the boat.
