Activities at Flowerdown Care Home
Our home is always full of life, and we can thank our wonderful Activities Coordinators for this. Dedication to creating a unique and interesting activities programme is what sets us apart from other homes. We always take into consideration that some people would prefer to pursue their own interests, which is why our team strive to incorporative activities that cater to a wide range of tastes and hobbies. Our trips out are always fun and exciting as well, and residents are guaranteed to return with stories to tell their loved ones!

Life at Flowerdown Care Home
Garden Wildlife
Due to our rural location here at Flowerdown, we have always enjoyed a variety of wildlife. This month, we were lucky enough to welcome a mother deer and her babies, which the residents and staff alike enjoyed watching in the garden.
Planting Sunflowers
Residents at Barchester got busy planting sunflowers for our annual sunflower competition, to see who can grow the largest one.
Comic Relief
Residents dressed in red and other bright colours, as they and the staff used their little peddle bikes to cycle to Manchester to raise money for Comic Relief. They successfully reached their destination on Friday in time for the big show, raising £70 for the charity they all hold dear to their hearts.
Easter Celebrations
Residents at Flowerdown kicked off our Easter celebrations by spending a lovely crafty afternoon making Easter cards and some delicious tasting Easter nests.
Birthday Celebrations
Flowerdown got together to help our dear friend Joan celebrate her hundred and first birthday in style, with plenty of cards, balloons and cake, followed by a visit from her son and daughter in law.
Squirrel Appreciation Day
To mark Squirrel Appreciation Day and all the little visitors we get in the garden. The residents, along with our Gardner, Ian, got together to thread walnuts and make a display, which kept our little squirrel friends happy for days.
