Activities at Challoner House Care Home

Our specialist activities staff are committed to organising a mix of activities and events for residents and the local community to get involved in, including trips out to local places of interest in our minibus and visits from entertainers and musicians. It is important to us that each individual who we support can get as much from these as possible, so we try our best to arrange activities that reflect their interests and capabilities as best as possible, and encourage them to participate in any way they can. We also encourage relatives to join with activities and events as often as they can.

Zoolab Returns

Heather from Zoolab joined us and brought some of her amazing animal friends with her for the residents to meet and even hold.

There was a corn snake, a fluffy Guinea pig and the residents loved meeting them all – especially the bearded dragon!
