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.

King Charles School come to Sing Carols

What a wonderful treat we had this week with a visit from King Charles School Choir.  Intergenerational collaborations such as this are just the most special for all involved.  The children were fantastic and our residents faces were beaming with joy watching them sing.  The children then spent some time mingling with everyone before they departed.  
A huge thank you from all at Falmouth Court to King Charles School for making the trip to give our residents such a lovely morning.
