Activities at Hollyfields Care Home
Our Activities programme is formulated using resident requests and feedback from resident meetings. Residents are involved in planning the programme with things they they would like to do throughout the year. There is a mixture of activities that take place including both group and 1-1 engagement. Residents at Hollyfields particularly enjoy movement to music activities enabling them to increase their level of physical abilities and have fun at the same time, whilst others enjoy musical singalongs and food based activities throughout the week.
We have a mini bus that enables us to reconnect our residents with their community in ways that suite themselves as individuals. This can be achieved by visiting local farms, Georgian towns, local attractions and even the local public house for lunch with friends. Hollyfields have a great relationship with their local community and have visits from local organisations such as The Wyre Community Land Trust and are currently undertaking a 12 week funded project from Arts Etc. Residents at Hollyfields enjoy Pet Therapy visits from their pet rabbit 'Thumper' and like to help clean and feed him daily. Relatives can be encouraged to join us for activities and again are very supportive with delivering theme days and fundraising events within the home.

National Fish & Chip Day
Today we had the pleasure of taking our residents out to Merchant's in Bewdley for freshly made fish & chips. The staff went above and beyond for us and the food was simply delicious!
It was lovely hearing our residents talk about past memories. We then took a stroll along the river reminiscing about the old buildings and surroundings. This afternoon, Activities Coordinator; Kaylee enjoyed having 1:1 time with resident Mrs Turner who showed her how to arrange flowers just like when she would display at flower shows she used to attend.
Trip to Bewdley
Our staff always go above and beyond. On our day trip to Bewdley today, care support worker Sue joined us on her day off to help support our residents.
