Activities at Lethen Park 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.
Amanda McCarthy
We all know that keeping active is important. We have created a wonderful culture within the home and we work together to give residents the best possible experience. We are here to ensure that residents enjoy an environment that is both stimulating and socially active. We ensure the team knows each residents' preferences, so that we can deliver a person-centered program of events and activities. Essential to our homely feel is the strong relationships of trust we build with residents and their families and friends

Life at Lethen Park Care Home
Tour of the deep
Residents across our services enjoyed a fantastic virtual tour of The Deep, an award-winning aquarium in Hull.
Our residents dived into the underwater world of some fascinating creatures such as sharks, turtles and stingrays.
It was a truly immersive and educational experience that brought the wonders of the ocean right to our screens.
Enjoying the garden
Residents have recently had a brilliant time in the garden, making the most of both the outdoor space and glorious sunshine.
Whilst enjoying the warmer weather, residents Vilma and Sandy reminiscence and shared stories of time spent in their own gardens over the years, whilst others simply listened enjoying each other’s company.
Everyone was also thankful for a cold refreshing ice pop and everyone had a good time!
Art Club
Lewis had a lovely moment at our art club today showing his creative abilities and adding a splash of colour! Lewis lived in Dundee for many years and spoke about the large boats that often could be seen on the docks which he represented in his beautiful painting.
Whilst completing his piece of work, Lewis was able to relax and reminisce over fond thoughts and memories of the Dundee industrial docks.
Celebrating Cadbury's
Residents across our services had a wonderful time joining Cadbury for an interactive virtual talk on their fascinating 200-year history.
Residents joining learnt interesting facts about the chocolate giant, shared memories, and reminisced about their favourite sweet treats.
It was a heartwarming experience filled with laughter, nostalgia, and plenty of chocolatey goodness!
Trip to the club
Davie had an amazing time at the Jubilee Hall lunch club based at Portlethen. During his time at the club Davie had the pleasure of meeting Julie the coordinator and a number of other community users.
Davie enjoyed playing table tennis and really enjoyed his lunch of home made mince and tattie soup. Davie had an amazing day and felt so happy during this outing.
Quiz time
