Our Activities Coordinators work as a team by involving staff and relatives in the activities sessions. They implement and plan activities tailored to residents' likes, dislikes, beliefs and life stories.

Life at Magnolia Court Care Home
Best of luck Bill!
We have mentioned on previous occasions how our Resident Bill has reached the finals of the Barchester Healthcare awards as the divisional winner of the 'Resident Ambassador of the Year category. Well, guess who now has his very own banner?! Here he is folks, enjoying every moment! The banner will stand proudly in our Reception for the foreseeable future - who knows, may be it will be replaced with the overall champion's banner? Best of luck, Bill!
Pet Therapy
Look who came to visit us today at Magnolia Court! Dave the Dalmatian who is just 3 months old. All the residents had great fun watching him run around and of course we got lots of cuddles too! Thank you Performing Pets for coming to see us.
National Dog Day!
Our residents and staff had a fantastic time learning more about different dog breeds and their characteristics, discussing and reminiscing about their own pets. We all had a great time watching him run around and play with the ball. Of course, he got lots of hugs too!
National Beer day. Cheers!
National Beer Day!
We had a fun-filled day as we raised a glass and tasted top ales in celebration of National Beer Day on 15th of June.
Our residents enjoyed a mini beer festival in the garden and got involved in a variety of interesting activities.
Some of our residents spent time learning about brewing and the history of beer, others preferred to join the beer tasting session in the garden and to try some British beers.
It was a wonderful day, enjoyed by all.
Pet therapy at Magnolia Court.
Pet Therapy.
Pet Therapy is one of our most treasured Activities here at Magnolia Court Care home and we are lucky to have cuddles with a different type of Animal each time. This week we had the delight of three kittens named Ringo, Paul and George.
Everyone loves to get involved and it’s no surprise as Animal Therapy is proven to reduce anxiety, provide comfort and mental stimulation.
We can’t wait for Performing Pets to visit us again!
Happy Carers Week!
Happy Carers Week!
Magnolia Court would like to take this great opportunity to recognise and thank our wonderful carers.
We are proud of each and every one of our care team for the outstanding care that they provide to our residents every single day. They always go above and beyond their role and for this we are truly grateful.
As part of the week, our carers received numerous donations and gifts from local organisations and businesses and lovely thank you cards from our community members, relatives and friends. Octavian, General Manager organised a party to celebrate and say thank you.
