Activities at Claremont Parkway Care Home
Activities are the cornerstone of a wholesome home experience, and our Activities Coordinators are always putting their creative minds to the test by organising new and exciting social events for residents to partake in. Of course, we take into account the likes and dislikes of those we support, so if someone doesn’t feel like trying something new, there will always be something on offer to reflect their personal interests. For the people who may just prefer some peace and quiet instead, we also offer one-to-one time that can be enjoyed with a nice cup of coffee or just a simple chat – whatever they desire.
Elain Carey
Hi. My name is Elain and I help to deliver the daily programme of activities and entertainment and celebrations - there is always a birthday to celebrate! I like to see residents making friends and chatting with each other. I have a background in dance, music and acting, and I am also a qualified Zumba instructor, so I love it when we have entertainers in the home. We also have regular visits by therapy pets which residents find very relaxing.

Life at Claremont Parkway Care Home
Virtual Church Service
We joined St. Peter & St. Paul Church for our first ever virtual service. Residents really enjoy the experience and appreciated the chance to have a Sunday service.
Thank you St. Peter & St. Paul for the opportunity to join your community for your Sunday.
The Vaccine Arrives
We here at Claremont Parkway are so proud to say that many of our team have had their COVID-19 vaccinations, with many more booked in. Our team feels that it is so important to do all we can to keep our residents as safe during this time.
Christmas Day
Residents had a nice surprise on Christmas Day; the children of Windermere Nursery very kindly brought presents for each of them.
Gail Benford, from Windermere Nursery, contacted us, as the nursery wanted to do something nice for our residents during this time.
The residents loved the presents and commented on how nice and thoughtful it was of the nursery to think of them during this time.
Thank you very much to all the children and families of Windermere Nursery.
Christmas Zumba
The residents had so much fun with Christmas Zumba. The residents loved Elain’s festive outfit and her Christmas spirit. They all joined in and expressed their Christmas spirit.
Christmas Cards of Kindness
Montsaye Academy in Rothwell contacted us about their 'Christmas Cards of Kindness' scheme.
The students studying social science wrote individual cards for each of our residents.
The residents really enjoyed reading the cards and thought it was so lovely that they had taken their time to write them. They especially enjoyed the handmade ones, made by one of the students.
Thanksgiving Celebrations
We celebrated Thanksgiving here at Claremont Parkway. There was bingo, quizzes and we even made some Thanksgiving turkeys. The Head Chef made us some yummy treats and our local Tesco donated some American treats for the residents to try.
