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
Coxley Primary School
We welcome a local village school, Coxley Primary School, to Crandon Springs. The children delighted us with a variety of Christmas songs and then chatted with our lovely residents. After a squash and biscuit they all recieved a chocolate lolly and it was then back to school for lunch. Thankyou to all the children and their teachers from us all at Crandon Springs. What a magical Morning
The Vixens
What an absolutely amazing “Family Christmas Celebration” we enjoyed today here at Crandon Springs. Our Special Guests - “The Vixens” were incredible… singing carols at the doorway whilst snow was falling behind them… and then a set of old and new Christmas Songs in beautiful harmony.. We had an amazing audiance of 65 people - all of whom enjoyed themselves. The performance was accompanied by Mulled Wine and Bucks Fizz and followed by a delicious Christmas Buffett, prepared by our very talented Chefs!
A massive thank you to everyone who came, everyone who helped and of course “The Vixens”
Merry Christmas Everyone!
—There will be some videos posted shortly, for everyone to see a snippet of the wonderful singing —
