Activities at Juniper House Care Home
Activities are the cornerstone of a wholesome home experience and our Activities Coordinators are always putting their creative minds to the test by organising new and exciting social events for residents to partake in. Of course, we take into account the likes and dislikes of those we support, so if someone doesn’t feel like trying something new, there will always be something on offer to reflect their personal interests. For the people who may just prefer some peace and quiet instead, we also offer one-to-one time that can be enjoyed with a nice cup of coffee or just a simple chat – whatever they desire.

Life at Juniper House Care Home
Outing to a local coffee shop
We boarded our mini bus and travelled the short journey to a new and modern coffee shop in our community for some coffee and cake. It was a beautiful autumn day and the ladies especially enjoyed the delicious cakes and milky lattes. The staff made us feel very welcome and we will definitely return on a future outing!
Outing to Chacombe Park Care Home
It was great to see our friends at Chacombe Park Care Home this month. We boarded the mini bus and drove the lovely country route to Banbury to have a nice afternoon with our friends that we often see at the Dementia Community Choir. Two of our residents loved driving past the village they used to live in. Next time we plan to meet up with Chacombe Park, they are visiting us for some tea and cake.
Open Day
Our open day was a wonderful success! We opened our doors to the community to showcase our home. We loved meeting new people and showing them around our home.
We held a Coffee Morning where everyone enjoyed socialising over a cup of tea and some delicious cakes hand made by the kitchen team.
Country and western party - Yeehaaa!
This month we celebrated all things American with a country and western party. The charismatic Steve Carmel performed his country music show, the kitchen team made wonderful American food and of course everyone had there cowboy hats on!
Weekly bingo game
Concentration faces on and dabbers ready as everyone enjoys some friendly competition at an old time favourite, bingo. Residents enjoy keeping their brains active and of course winning some prizes is always a thrill.
We play bingo once a week and it’s definitely something our residents look forward too.
Baking Sessions
Tom’s ‘Resident of the day’ wish was to make his very own Romanian Apple and Walnut Cake recipe once again.
So we popped on our chef hats and Tom taught us how to make the cake during a baking session.
The cake went down a treat and it has sparked Tom’s love for baking once again.
