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.

Life at Falmouth Court Care Home

Jubilee Pony Party

So as a part of the Queens Jubilee celebrations the residents of Falmouth Court had a return visit from a very special guest!

Gail one of our carers brought her miniature American Horses in to see everyone. On this visit she even went in the lift to go upstairs to ‘Memory Lane’ our dementia community. Everyone loved the afternoon and as we all know, you can’t beat animal therapy.

Princess Pavilion Jubilee Tea Party

So as a part of the busy schedule of events almost all of the residents of Falmouth Court took a trip in the mini bus down to the Princess Pavilion last week for the Jubilee tea party and tea dance. It was so wonderful to get almost everyone out to this lovely event. They all thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon starting with a delicious cream tea and then they all went inside to watch the tea dance.

Jubilee Hat Decorating

Here at Falmouth Court, we are having lots of Jubilee themed celebrations and we look forward to sharing our news with you.

It feels as if we have all come together as Her Majesty The Queen has become the first British Monarch to celebrate a Platinum Jubilee, and at Falmouth Court we had a fun afternoon of hat decorating ready for the upcoming garden party.

Very kindly one of our residents friends volunteered to come and help everyone make their own displays for their hats.

Choose a Tree for the Jubilee

So our residents went to Chacewater Garden Centre yesterday and chose a ’Tree for the Jubilee’

We thought it would be nice to take our residents along and let them choose a tree to plant in our garden for the Jubilee celebrations.

They chose a Cotoneaster. This has white flowers with red berries so quite fitting.

Everyone enjoyed looking at all the different options and then enjoyed a nice coffee in the cafe afterwards.

Hugh the Home Services Advisor then planted it in pride of place in the garden this morning.

Monica's Birthday Celebrations

Happy birthday to Monica. Monica invited her family to come in and join her celebrations with a lovely afternoon tea prepared by our marvelous chefs.

The care team decorated with banners and balloons and they all enjoyed a lovely afternoon in our beautiful garden lounge.

We love to make a fuss of our residents on their birthdays and really focus on getting to know our residents and make sure we are providing food, activities and care suited to each individual.

Meet 'Reggie' The PAT Dog.

Meet Reggie!

Reggie is a new PAT (Pets as Therapy) dog that has come along to visit the residents of Falmouth Court. Our residents love their visits from furry friends.
