Activities at Latimer Court Care Home
Our teams are trained to enrich the lives of residents through stimulating the mind, body and soul, and taking the time to learn about each person to ensure everyone receives support that adds enrichment to their life.
Here at Latimer Court, we have a varied social programme that includes themed events once a month, painting classes, day trips out, exercise classes and arts & crafts, to name but a few. We strive to tailor our activities to suit everyone's needs, and update our notice boards weekly so that all families and visitors can see what their loved ones have been up to. Our aim is to make sure that those we support can enjoy a happy and fulfilled stay with us.
Activities and Events Partnerships
As part of our bespoke life-enrichment programmes, we host a number of live virtual events in the home on a regular basis through a number of partnerships with places of interest and world class performance companies
Life at Latimer Court Care Home
Frank Sinatra Tribute
We got to take Residents Pat and Jean to see the Frank Sinatra Tribute at Malvern Theatre as he was singing with the SYD Orchestra.
They both had a lovely time as Jean hadn’t been out for some time and was really happy that we made both their Dreams Come True as this is what we have been doing in the home for the residents who live with us.
Pat and Jean enjoyed it so much they can’t wait to go out again.
Phoenix Choir
Our residents here at Latimer Court love a sing song, so we were extremely grateful and excited that 'The Phoenix Choir' came to see us and have a sing along which we all thoroughly enjoyed.
The Phoenix Choir perform at Care homes, and other venues across the UK performing voluntarily and donate all their monies to Charities.
We are already warming up our vocals and looking forward to the next visit from this amazing choir!
Severn Valley Railway
For Dreams Come true, Residents wanted to go on the Severn Valley Railway so we made it happen and went from Kidderminster to Highly on the Steam Train. At Highly they have the Engine house and Café. We looked around the Engine House at the old Steam Trains and took the Residents for lunch in the Café which they thoroughly enjoyed. We took the return DMU Train from Highly to Kidderminster and had our own Carriage which was very enjoyable and the residents had a great time.
Egg Hunt with Debutots Worcestershire!
Thank you so much to Kirsten at Debutots Worcestershire for the delicious Easter eggs our residents received this morning from the children at Nunnery Wood Preschool!
We had a fabulous time with the Easter Bunny and the children enjoyed finding lots of delicious eggs at the Easter Egg hunt. We all had such a great time!
Ready, Set, Race for the Cheltenham Gold Cup
We had our very own Gold Cup Race in honour of the well-known Cheltenham Gold Cup, to raise money for Comic Relief this year.
Some of our wonderful team dressed up as their own horses and jockeys to compete in their own 3 races! All together there were 7 horses, who ran a route around our home and gardens to get their heart rate up and see who was the fastest! Residents each placed a bet on who would win the final race, the almighty Gold Cup and horse ‘Del Boy Trotter’ won all 3 races!
We had such a great time and loved supporting such a good cause!
Exercise with Gina
We always enjoy having Gina in from G-fitness for our monthly exercise session! Once a month, Gina comes in with some tools and techniques to get our bodies moving, whcih our residents absolutely love. There's chance for them to stretch their legs to strengthen their muscles, and move their arms to get that boxing skill up!
Keeping active is always good for the mind and the body and is something our residents love… they always look forward to the little sing-a-long and cup of tea afterwards too, of course!
