Activities at Falmouth Court Care Home
We understand that the people we support have passions and interests that could be difficult to pursue after moving into a care home – but that doesn’t mean we don’t encourage them to try! Some hobbies can define a person, so our Activities Coordinators are dedicated to ensuring that everyone we support is able to do what makes them happy to the best of their abilities. Social events are organised with individual tastes in mind and with the idea that residents have the opportunity to try new and exciting things.

I have moved to Falmouth from Kent where I was already in place at another Barchester home as the Activities Coordinator. I love providing our residents with fulfilling activities and my specialty is arts and crafts. I have a degree in Fine Arts and achieved a first in the subject. I strive to provide our residents with a varied range of life enriching activities. I like to get to know each residents and their interests to I can tailor activities to individuals interests and hobbies.

We had a 'Tea Dance with a Difference' here at Falmouth Court this week and what a wonderful time everyone had. It was such a joy to see our residents so engaged and dancing to some classical tunes. Along with Lovely music and dancing there were also fun games and the whole afternoon was interactive and inclusive for all.
Trip to Gylly Beach Café
Our ladies took advantage of the sun this week with a trip out in the minibus to Gylly Beach Café for some lovely warm coffee's while watching the winter sea break over the beach. We try and get our residents out and about in the local community as much as possible. Gylly is a favourite place for a lot of our residents to visit.
