Activities at Magnolia Court Care Home

Making Wishes Come True!

We pride ourselves here at Magnolia Court for being person centered and tailoring ourselves to suit the individual. Recently, resident Judy shared a wish with us that she wanted to visit Regents Park.

With the sun shining and our bus passes ready, we boarded the bus to Regents Park. Judy a once local to area, was mesmerised by the changes that have happened since she was younger it was a real trip down memory lane for her.

We had a lovely lunch there, enjoyed the entire grounds of the park and made a couple friends whilst we were there.

It was clear to see that something so small could have a huge impact on our Judy.

Residents and staff at Magnolia Court feel in love with the gorgeous piglets that came to visit them. Our friends from Performing Pets brought the 2 10 week old, who were soon nicknamed pinky and perky by the residents. They were so adorable and there was plenty of time for cuddles. Everyone loved seeing them especially Lina, who grew up on a farm and it bought back so may wonderful memories for her.

Residents and staff at Magnolia Court were tickled pink when Tickled Pink Productions came to town.

They performed a story about a young woman who had dreams of making it big and performing on the on stage in the west end. There were trials and tribulations along the way but with the help of a good friend she was able to get auditions and perform to her best ability, Making her dream come true!

What a fun filled afternoon for all.

Reminiscence On The Big Screen

Magnolia Court has a regular visitor who holds wonderful reminiscence sessions. Last week we had a focus on famous women in history.

Residents loved to see the remarkable women in history and the difference they made. We all agree that times have changed for the better for women and we could not possibly pick one of out the many to choose as our favourite or most memorable.

We did all agree that this quote was particularly powerful - “We are here, not because we are law-breakers; we are here in our efforts to become law-makers.” – Emmeline Pankhurst, leader of the UK suffragette movement.
