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

HSA Volunteer day

So yesterdays lucky break in the weather meant Hugh our Home Services Advisor was able to volunteer at The Rose Garden in Falmouth Cornwall UK. As a part of ‘The Big Spring Clean’, Hugh along with other volunteers from the community helped dig out the old rose bushes and plant a mix of red, white, and blue shrubs and plants ready for the jubilee celebrations this year.

At Falmouth Court we are always happy to help out and get involved with local community events

Hairdresser Day

It’s wonderful for our residents to have a fully equipped hair salon in the building. Our lovely Sarah comes in weekly to tend to everyone’s hair requirements.

She loves being a part of the week that our residents look forward to and greatly enjoy.

'Vera' visits Falmouth Court

One of our residents had a family member come visit today, ‘Vera’ the greyhound came to visit her grandmother. Vera was quite taken with our resident ornament greyhound standing guard at the front door.

We always encourage visitors to bring in their pets. Animals are always the best therapy!

Mothering Sunday

Mothering Sunday was celebrated in style at Falmouth Court.

Everyone enjoyed some flower arranging in the morning and then an afternoon tea party with music, singing and fun all round.

With our beautiful resident cafe decorated for the occasion a great time was had by both residents and staff.

Trip to Flicka Foundation - Donkey Sanctuary

Well, todays trip out was absolutely wonderful! We took a full minibus of our residents to visit The Flicka Foundation Donkey Sanctuary. What better way to spend a glorious sunny afternoon than with some beautiful furry friends?

Everyone enjoyed a good tour around seeing all the donkey’s, followed by tea, coffee and delicious cakes in the cafe.

An amazing time was had by all. It just confirms how important regular life enriching trips out and about into the community really are.
