Activities at Cossins House 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.

Life at Cossins House Care Home
Cinderella
A great start to the Christmas period with a wonderful performance from Rah Rah Theatre who came to Cossins House to perform Cinderella. The afternoon was very amusing and the room was lit up with laughter and smiles. Residents took part in dancing and joined in with the songs. We look forward to our next show.
Indoor Fun and Games
During the cold weather we spend time together playing games such as solitaire, jenga, and making use of our new library which residents wished for.
A trip to see the Christmas Decorations
Residents at Cossins House had a lovely trip out to the garden centre to look at the Christmas Decorations. We had a lovely afternoon deciding on our decorations for this year followed by tea and cake.
Family Time
Residents at Cossins love to spend time with their relatives. New memories made and more to come. Residents enjoy lunches with their relatives and time out in our lovely garden. Quite often relatives join us for live entertainment and always end up on the dance floor.
Happy Times
At Cossins House, residents build great friendships. Residents love to sit out in the garden and keep each other company. Sharing stories over afternoon tea.
Happy Halloween from Cossins House
Residents at Cossins House had fun digging out pumpkins and helping our Maintenance man Manny carve their own designs. They looked fantastic, also, the pumpkin soup was a delight.
