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.

Shopping Trip

Elaine enjoyed a shopping trip to ASDA. There was lots to choose from and Elaine said that it had changed so much since she last visited. We were also getting all the decorations for our Spring Fair. It's safe to say that we came back with lots of goodies!

Church Service

Residents always enjoy a visit from St Paul's Church; they host wonderful services that bring everyone together!

Birthday Bonnet

Vera had created the most amazing Easter bonnet and had lots of fun making it, so decided wear it during her birthday celebrations.

Baking Club

We hold a regular Baking Club and, recently, we were making muffins, double chocolate cakes and cookies. Residents loved helping each other out to bake these treats for our afternoon tea.

Easter Crafts

Easter time is all about having fun! We have enjoyed many sessions of arts and crafts, creating cards, bonnets, decorations, and cakes whilst reminiscing about our past Easter celebrations. The residents have loved puzzles and quizzes related to Easter and we are excited for our Easter coffee morning to taste our yummy homemade cake!

Afternoon Tea Party

Each week, we hold an afternoon tea party and decide what theme we should base it around. Most recently, it was all about exploring new teas and how beneficial they can be for us. A lot of us learned about teas we didn’t even know existed and why it’s important to keep hydrated.
