Activities at Glenroyd Care Home

Here at the Glenroyd our specialist activities staff are committed to organising a mix of activities and events for residents and the local community to get involved in, including trips out to local places of interest in our minibus and visits from entertainers and musicians. Everyone is different and gets pleasure from different things and here at Glenroyd we understand that and therefore try to provide a programme of activity that is tailored to individuals needs. We do this by gathering information and life history work and using that information to feed into our activities schedule. We also encourage relatives to join with activities and events as often as they can.

Agata Prendota

Activities Coordinator

Hi, my name is Agata Prendota and I am the activities coordinator here at Glenroyd. I have worked at Glenroyd since 2014 and in April 2022 transferred to activities. I developed a strong relationship with many of our residents and their families. This has helped me to create a tailored activities program focused on maximizing everyone’s wellbeing, independence, and social engagement.

It is my goal to create a stimulating environment that enables to provide imaginative, fun, and motivational activities that suit every interest and ability. My infectious enthusiasm and creative approach are the key to inspire our residents and staff to get involved in activities both within the home and in the local community.

I am passionate about my role and especially the challenge of coming up with new ways to engage as many residents as possible in daily activities.

Quiz King

We would like to take the time to thank Colin, who we call call 'Quiz King', as he has been leading our weekly quiz mornings by creating his own quizzes for our group activity. This always gets everyone's minds going for the day, and we learn lots of things we didn’t know before.

Choctastic!

We made lots of delicious chocolate chip muffins; we enjoyed being able to prepare the ingredients and putting them all together to give it a good mix, and the best part was being able to enjoy them with evening refreshments.

World Food Day

On World Food Day, we enjoyed a food tasting session from around the world that included German sausages, Chinese food, Polish salamis, really got the taste buds going. It was a very interesting session and we learnt a lot about the food culture of different places.

Spooktacular!

We have had lots of fun revamping our conservatory ready for our Halloween party with help from residents. It’s looking super scary!

Graduate Again

We enjoyed a reminisce show by Jimmy O’Donnell, and were taken back in time to the old school days. It was very fun!

Games Morning

We enjoy our regular games morning with refreshments – they really get the brain going! Our favourite game at the moment is KerPlunk, which is amazing for concentration always brings everyone together.
