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.

Life at Falmouth Court Care Home
Carnon Downs Memory Cafe
Supporting our local community is very important to us here at Falmouth Court. Along with enhancing our residents lives to be the fullest that can possibly be.
Today we loaded up the minis bus with two residents that recently joined us and took them along to Carnon Downs Memory Cafe, being previous attendees we wanted to make sure then can still carry on this aspect of their life that they enjoy so much. Having been invited along by our sister home Kenwyn Care Home - Barchester Healthcare previously, we were so pleased to take our residents to join in with this lovely community event.
Today, both of our homes enjoyed an afternoon of Cornish Poetry, delivered by the incredible Poet, Clive Blake, along with added fun, tea and cake.
Home Services Advisors Hugh and Adele volunteered and also gifted raffle prizes.
Queen Mary Gardens
Another lovely trip out in the mini bus in the sun for the residents of Falmouth Court. They stopped off at Pendennis Point and then onwards to Queen Mary Gardens to enjoy the beautiful flowers.
Open Day
Some pictures from our very successful meet the manager event at the weekend. We gave 10 parties tours of our beautiful new care home. Everyone enjoyed having a look round and a delicious coffee and cake prepared by our chefs.
Visit to Memory Café
So recently Hugh our Home Services Advisor went along to Falmouth Memory Cafe. We always like to involve Falmouth Court with local community groups and it was quite a special occasion as the Mayor was also in attendance. The group were entertained by a fantastic singer and were very welcoming.
Next time we are planning to take along some of our residents to join in, along with some donations for their raffle.
Wimbledon Party
To celebrate the start of Wimbledon all the residents of Falmouth Court had a fun filled afternoon with games and a quiz and of course strawberries and cream!
Luckily it was a lovely sunny afternoon so everyone enjoyed the outdoor games.
National Cream Tea Day Scone Making
So today the residents made the scones in readiness for their cream tea party tomorrow afternoon to celebrate National Cream Day.
Sharon from our kitchen team only had a small number of volunteers as most were too busy soaking up the sun in our beautiful garden.
Roll on tomorrow afternoon when everyone can enjoy the fruits of their labour with a delicious cream tea. Jam first of course!!!
