Activities at Kenwyn 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.
Jools Wyngaard
South African born Jools joined the team here at Kenwyn in March 2023 as Activities Coordinator after she decided to try life in the UK with her partner.
Jools' background is in Fundraising and Digital Marketing however after witnessing her Grandmother live with Dementia has since always wanted to work more closely with the aged and vulnerable and enrich the lives of residents.
In her spare time Jools loves her animals and misses her cats who are with her family in South Africa.

The Virtual Coffee Experience Success!
Our Virtual coffee experience with Nescafe was a huge success!
Here you can see some of our resident’s engrossed in the event itself, and also turning their hand to making Bespoke Kenwyn Coffee Flavoured Cocktails.

International Women in Science Day!
Would you believe that the 11th February was International Women of Science Day?!
Kenwyn was not going to miss an opportunity such as this!
Chloe from Activities set to work concocting experiments with our residents.
Even though the experiment results were a little dubious, everyone really enjoyed the taking part in this fun activity.
