Activities at Four Hills Care Home
Our activity and lifestyle programme is arranged for all our residents to participate in and is updated regularly based on ideas from our residents group during our resident forum. Our Resident of the Day strategy ensures each person receives at least one day each month where the focus is all about them.
We have a monthly concert and to date this is appreciated and enjoyed by most residents. The Four Hills Taverns is open for business every Friday afternoon and is an area where residents and staff socialise, hold pub quizzes and partake in a little refreshment.
The team at Four Hills try hard to meet everyone's needs and encourage all residents and their families to join in the fun.

Life at Four Hills Care Home
Mayfair of Nightingales
Residents across our services had a fantastic time joining Mandy Morrow for a virtual walking tour to learn about the ‘Herstory’ of Mayfair. The Mayfair of Nightingales may be long gone but it still holds a 20th century charm. Birthplace to the late Queen Elizabeth II, home to one of WWII's most decorated female war heroes and a tale of a wealthy Aristocrat and one of France's favourite designers.
We were delighted to take a walk down memory lane and discover stories from one of London's most iconic areas. The experience was truly enjoyed by all.
Silent Disco
We decided to try something a bit new this month and brought in a silent disco to Four Hills, residents had a wonderful time being in their own wee musical bubble, we had the disco lights on and the cocktails were flowing. Residents, staff and visitors all got their groove on, we all loved it and its definitely something we will do again.
Glamorous Grannies Afternoon
We had a fabulous time at our glamorous grannies afternoon this month, staff and residents decided to get styled up in their pyjamas, while been treated to some fabulous pampering, they enjoyed face masks, manicures and some new hair styles. Margaret said it was just like being at a fancy spa hotel as she relaxed with a lovely glass of wine.
Next weeks the roles are reversed and the residents plan to pamper the staff for looking after them so well.
A Visit from Poppie
Residents at Four Hills have been loving Poppie coming into spend days with us during the summer holidays.
Poppie has already created a lovely bond with a number of residents, she has been taking them back to their childhood by bringing in games for them to play, playing schools and houses together.
Every time Poppie walks through the door the residents have big beaming smiles on their faces and she interacts so well with them.
National Ice Cream Day
Residents across our homes had a fantastic time during a special live virtual event in celebration on National Ice Cream Day. Wall’s team took us on a great journey through history, sharing fascinating details about the brand since its launch in 1922. We learned about major innovations such as the introduction of Mr Whippy, Cornetto, Viennetta, Twister, and Carte d'Or.
Residents were treated to a sing-along to Cornetto classic ads, an interactive quiz about fun Wall’s facts and best-of-all, an ice-cream tasting session. It was a delightful experience for everyone, especially our ice-cream lovers.
Dogs Trust
Residents across our homes had a fantastic time during a special live virtual event, led by Jennifer and Emily from Dogs Trust, the UK's largest dog welfare charity. Jennifer and Emily took us on a journey to discover the rich history of Dogs Trust and their facilities.
Using captivating video and photo footage, our residents were able to explore rehoming centres and learn more about the highest level of welfare offered there. It was a delightful experience for everyone, especially our dog lovers.
