Activities at Crandon Springs Care Home
Activities are an integral part of life at our care home. We want to ensure that the people we support have as much fun as possible during their time with us, so it’s important that our activities programme is created with the interests of residents in mind. Our skilled Activities Coordinators bring a certain uniqueness to the home that can’t be found anywhere else, and which is reflected in the activities they organise.
Katherine Cork
Hello, my name is Kath and I’m the Activities Assistant here at Crandon Springs.
As part of the Activities and lifestyle enrichment team, I help in organising our daily activities, ensuring that all of our residents have a variety of activities to choose from each day. I love enriching our residents’ lives by providing meaningful and engaging activities and, having been both a teacher and care assistant in the past, have a wealth of experience behind me. You'll rarely find me without a smile and I'm very family orientated, and I love how both the residents' and colleagues Crandon Springs feel like a second family to me!

Life at Crandon Springs Care Home
Ladies Carpet Bowls
Our residents having an enjoyable afternoon playing bowls.
Bowls might not be the most aggressive or demanding exercise you could choose to take part in, but it still provides a stimulus for maintaining muscle mass – particularly in the lower body.
One of the biggest challenges that older adults face is the loss of muscle through inactivity. Referred to as ‘sarcopenia’, a significant loss of muscle can affect everything from metabolic health, to functional strength if it isn’t corrected.
Wells Business network breakfast
Thank you to everybody who came along to the Wells Business network breakfast today at Crandon Springs Care Home. We thoroughly enjoyed it.
