Activities at Caldy Manor Care Home
Our teams are trained to enrich the lives of residents through stimulating the mind, body and soul, and taking the time to learn about each person to ensure everyone receives support that adds enrichment to their life. 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
Intergenerational play session
Caldy Manor care home, in Wirral recently hosted an intergenerational playgroup for residents and members of the local community from St Bridget’s church. The event welcomed the group of babies and their parents and carers, who all attend St Bridget’s baby group, to enjoy music, activities and socialise with the residents.
The group of parents, carers and babies enjoyed lots of different fun activities with the residents including a singalong to their favourite songs such as twinkle twinkle as well as some sensory play with scarves and bubbles. They all enjoyed singing their favourite songs which brought back some wonderful memories for the residents and they even learnt some new songs.
Weekly outing on the bus
We have been to a few places this month on the bus such as Birkenhead priory looking over to Liverpool eating lunch on the bus. New Brighton for fish and chips, park Gate and Carr Farm to look at Christmas decorations and to get some crafts for our next craft activity.
Weekly crosswords
Our weekly crosswords has been a massive hit with Caldy Manor and residents can’t get enough of them. Residents ask to do them all the time that they have now requested for a crossword competition. This is some think we will arrange for the near future.
A Visit from Jacksons Animal Rescue
Jacksons Animal Rescue came to do a talk about the rescue and to collect the money that the staff at Caldy had fundraised doing a charity car wash early on in the year. Greer the lady who delivered the talk spoke to us about how to charity started and where it is now.
Macmillan crafts
We have been busy making bracelets and cards ready to be sold on our stall on our coffee morning. We will be selling the bracelets, cards and homemade cakes in order to raise money for Macmillan. This activity was important as it included the residents and it made them feel important and proud they helped raise money.
Holy Communion
We are blessed to be able to have Holy Communion here at Caldy and for it to be delivered by Reverend Alex from St Bridget’s Church. We have this once a month and is very important to our residents to be able to carry on with their faith and for us to be able to support this.
