Activities at Fountains 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 am thrilled to now be Activities Lead and being able to continue enriching the life’s of our lovely residents here at Fountains.

Life at Fountains Care Home
Breaking Ground
Work has begun on the Fountains care home. Ed Wootton, Regional Director at Seddon, said: “This ground-breaking marks the start of an exciting project with Barchester, which will not only result in quality build using innovative construction practices, but will also deliver benefits to the community through job creation and a much needed local asset.”
