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
Shire Horses
We were treated to a visit from two beautiful shire horses. Animals have a wonderful calming effect and the residents love to stroke them, talk to them and play with them. And of course feed them!
The home was visited by Sam’s Pet Services who caused a great deal of excitement. All of the residents enjoyed the visit, they petted and fed the two horses, Ruby and Dolly, who seemed to appreciate meeting their new friends.
Wimbledon Garden Party
We all gathered outside for a Wimbledon themed garden party, Everyone had a glass of the classic Wimbledon drink, Pimms and of course strawberries and cream was served. There was live entertainment by Steve Carmel meaning lots of singing and dancing.
A visit from the local school
Intergenerational fun here at Juniper House with students from a local school.
The children walked up from the local school in the morning and then a different class in the afternoon. It was a day full of poetry, songs, laughter and of course lots of smiles!
We love keeping in contact with our local community and can’t wait to welcome the primary school students back again.
Juniper House Sports Day
This Year we held our very first sports day. The Day consisted of multiple competitions for staff, residents and visitors. There was lots going on for all, including; a 3-legged race, egg and spoon races, bowls, target practice and a push-up challenge!
Lots of medals were won and memories made.
We are going to make it an annual special event as it was enjoyed by all.
The King’s Coronation Celebration
Of course a big event in the month of May was the Kings coronation. We partied like royalty, with union jacks as far as the eye could see. With drinks, food, music and even a treat tombola. A big thank you to all friends, family and staff who came along to make the day special.
Brackley Medical Centre and Community Hospital Grand Opening
This month we headed out into the community in our mini bus to our local medical centres opening day. This is where our GP’s are based. It was lovely to see so many in the community and a chance to view the new premises.
