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.

Life at Caldy Manor Care Home

Summer Fete

Even though the weather was poor, that didn’t stop us from enjoying ourselves at our summer fete. We had a visit from a pony called cupcake followed by live entertainers. We had tombola, face painting, garden games for the children and much more. We finished the day off with a buffet made by our fabulous chef.

NHS 75th Birthday

For the NHS 75th birthday we had a little party to celebrate all things NHS. We thanked everyone who has and is working for the NHS which we have a few residents who did and was nice listening to their stories. Followed by an afternoon of chair exercises and games. There was balloon tennis, bean bag toss and we really enjoyed throwing the ball into the cup to see who got the highest score.

Walls Ice Cream

National Ice Cream Day

Residents across our homes had a fantastic time during a special live virtual event in celebration on National Ice Cream Day. Wall’s team took us on a great journey through history, sharing fascinating details about the brand since its launch in 1922. We learned about major innovations such as the introduction of Mr Whippy, Cornetto, Viennetta, Twister, and Carte d'Or.

Residents were treated to a singalong to Cornetto classic ads, an interactive quiz about fun Wall’s facts and best-of-all, an ice-cream tasting session. It was a delightful experience for everyone, especially our ice-cream lovers.

Home hosts Summer Fete

Staff, residents, relatives and the local community came together at Caldy Manor to enjoy a Summer Fete that was held in the home’s grounds over the weekend.

Caldy Manor hosted a variety of activities throughout the day, including a pony visit from ‘cupcake’, tombola, face-painting, stall, guess the weight of cake and live entertainment, which were enjoyed by everyone who came to the event.

A dog is for life

Residents across our homes had a fantastic time during a special live virtual event, led by Jennifer and Emily from Dogs Trust, the UK's largest dog welfare charity. Jennifer and Emily took us on a journey to discover the rich history of Dogs Trust and their facilities.

Using captivating video and photo footage, our residents were able to explore rehoming centres and learn more about the highest level of welfare offered there. It was a delightful experience for everyone, especially our dog lovers.

Ferry across the Mersey

Staff and residents from Barchester’s Caldy Manor care home, in Caldy had a fantastic time visiting Liverpool where they all enjoyed taking the ferry over the Mersey.  Residents and staff had a brilliant time on the ferry, seeing camel laird’s and learning about the history of the ferries.
