Activities at Collingtree Park 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 they can, 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 in with activities and events as often as they can.

Activities Coordinator

Martin Tilly-Reed

Activities Coordinator

Hello, my name is Martin, I'm the activities coordinator here at Collingtree Park

My role is to ensure that our activities, outings and the entertainment we provide is stimulating and inclusive of all our residents no matter their challenges. It is important to me that our weekly calendar offers enriching experiences with music from live entertainers, visits to various locations outside the home, as well as arts and crafts tailored to individual abilities. 

Getting to know our residents better is so important, and through regular family and friends’ meetings we can gain a greater understanding of their loved ones' interests and life prior to joining Collingtree Park that will make for a richer activities program to be developed. 

I look forward to getting to know you, and your loved ones.

We are always open to new ideas. If you would like to get involved in any of our Life Enrichment activities or have a skill, or project you'd like to share with our residents, please click here  to contact the activities team direct. New entertainers and community links are always welcome.

Singing Duo Delights

We had an amazing afternoon with entertainment by female vocalists Lesley-Ann Parker and Katie-Rose Parker. This mother and daughter duo were amazing, it was wonderful to see our residents singing and dancing along.

We'd like to say a big THANK YOU to them both. We'll see you again soon for another great performance.

Alpaca's make themselves at home

Residents and Staff would like to say a big ‘Thank You’ to Dani and Nick from Easton Way Farm for bringing the impeccably behaved Anaire, Aurora, Malibu and Coco into our home today!

It was the first time the Alpacas have ever been inside and their behaviour throughout the visit was absolutely amazing. It was a wonderful opportunity for all of our residents to be a part of our Animal Therapy Sessions as Malibu visited residents in their bedrooms which was extra special.
