Activities at Claremont Parkway Care Home

We received a lovely donation of flowers from Trish, the Community Champion at Morrison’s in Kettering. Two residents made small arrangements for tables in the Claremont Parkway dining room. Jacqui, our Receptionist, arranged some sunflowers for our reception table.

On World Chocolate Day residents at Claremont Parkway enjoyed our new chocolate fountain. We dipped lots of different foods into the velvety chocolate, including marshmallows, waffles, strawberries and bread. Joyce loved her selection of treats while she read her book.

We had fun this morning at Claremont Parkway taking a selection of carnival games to residents' bedrooms for some one-to-one fun and conversation. Joyce, Peter and other residents enjoyed Bean Bag Throwing and knocking down the Tin Cans.

Do you remember playing Memory Tray games at children’s parties in your younger days? Elaine from the Activities Team at Claremont Parkway filled a tray with assorted household items, then covered it over and removed an item for residents to work out what was missing. We all enjoy this activity as it keeps our brains active and promotes some fascinating recollections of childhood fun.

Our residents had a lovely afternoon finishing off the raised flower beds with some plants.

Sue, whose husband Mike who is part of the Kettering Lions Club, supported our residents with picking out the flowers and helping to plant them.

A massive thank you to Sue, Mike and Bernard for supporting our resident in making the flower beds look wonderful.

We have some new additions to the Claremont Parkway family: we would like to introduce you to Anna and Emi, our new therapy dolls. As you can see they, were a huge hit with our Memory Lane residents.
