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.

Father's Day Celebrations

We had an incredible afternoon celebrating Father's Day with our beloved residents and their relatives.

The afternoon garden party was the perfect way for our residents and their families to connect and enjoy each other's company. With live music from the talented Marianne, the atmosphere was truly electric!

We served a selection of delicious refreshments throughout the event, including cocktails, wine, and beer. The drinks flowed freely, and everyone was in high spirits, laughing and chatting with one another. It was wonderful to see our residents and their loved ones bonding over the fantastic experience.

We would like to say a big thank you to the residents and their families for coming to celebrate Father's Day at Glenroyd Care Home. It was a joy to see everyone having such a great time together. We are honoured and privileged to be part of this special event commemorating the amazing fathers in our home.

Happy Father's Day to all the amazing dads out there!

A trip to Blackpool Zoo

We had such an incredible day yesterday at Blackpool Zoo when we took the residents on a fantastic trip! We were thrilled to be able to bring them to this amazing place and see all the incredible animals, but the journey really began when we watched the sea lions show! It was an absolute delight and all the residents enjoyed it, clapping and cheering along with the performers.

After the show, we worked up quite an appetite, so we headed to the cafe for some lunch. We indulged in some delicious burgers and hot dogs, and needless to say, it was the perfect fuel to continue exploring the zoo. Our residents had so much to see, from the gorillas to the monkeys, flamingos, big cats and giraffes! They were all incredibly fascinated by the beautiful creatures and their habitats.

Blackpool Zoo has some of the best attractions, from the fantastic seal and bird displays to the outstanding big cat section; it really made for a memorable day out. It makes us so proud seeing our residents being able to enjoy a day out with so many fun and exciting things to see and do.

Kudos to our team at Glenroyd Care Home! Here's to more adventures in the future!

RAF Museum London

Across our services we had a lovely time joining Rhiannon Watkinson from the RAF Museum London for an interactive talk exploring the exciting and innovative aviation history of Hendon.

Our residents were able to learn about the first flights from the fields at Hendon, the creation of the London Aerodrome and Battle of Britain pilots who flew from RAF Hendon.

The talk also included photographic and film material from the Museum’s archive. Residents across our homes had a fantastic time and we truly enjoyed the virtual experience.

A Wonderful Day at Glenroyd

Let's give a round of applause to Glenroyd Care Home's amazing bakers!

Recently, our residents put their baking skills to the test and made some mouth-watering cupcakes. The kitchen was filled with laughter, joy and the sweet scent of freshly baked treats.

The residents enjoyed spending time together while mixing the batter and savouring the delicious aroma. It's always heartening to see the residents participating in such enjoyable activities and making fond memories.

In the afternoon the atmosphere was perfect for a relaxing gathering in the garden, with the gentle breeze, birds chirping and the delicious smell of cupcakes and ice cream wafting through the air. Our residents couldn't help but tap their feet and sing along to the music, creating such a joyous ambiance in the garden.

We are so happy to have provided a wonderful time for our residents and we appreciate our kind and talented staff for making it happen.

Keeping fir while having fun!

Recently the residents at Glenroyd Care Home had an amazing time in the garden!

The Big Coronation Street Party

Excitement was in the air as we all celebrated the highly anticipated Coronation of King Charles in style.

Our garden was beautifully decorated with themed flags, banners and Union Jack bunting, setting the stage for a street party with grand royal lunch followed by live music entertainment.

The whole home came together, along with families, friends and local community members to celebrate our new King and talk about the new era the country is entering.

Our talented catering team prepared a delicious lunch followed by an assortment of sweet and savoury treats for all to enjoy, accompanied by a glass of wine or cocktail.

We all had such a brilliant time celebrating the Coronation, such a momentous occasion.
