Activities at Mallard Court Care Home

We love our trips out on the Mallard Court Mini Bus together to enjoy the beautiful panoramic scenery in the local area of Bridlington. We live in a vert tourist area and visitors come from all over Britain to enjoy our town.

There are so many views on our doorstep in Bridlington, and we are blessed with delicious Ice-cream parlours, scrumptious Fish & Chip shops, Cafes and Restaurant Bars.

Here at Mallard Court we celebrated National Healthy Eating week, with a variety of healthy recipes prepared by our very own Chefs. The delicious Fruit Kebabs were very well received as you can imagine by our residents, their families and friends.

Health and Nutrition is a very important, and our dedicated Chefs always take this into consideration, when preparing our delicious menus.

Residents across our homes and hospitals had a fantastic time with vocal coach Dan Cooper from Biiah as he led an amazing sing-a-long session for residents to enjoy.

Residents who joined the event were able to learn different techniques as they sang the famous ‘I Can See Clearly Now’ by Jimmy Cliff and ‘Here Comes the Sun’ by The Beatles.

Across our homes there were smiles and laugher all around. The session was such a success and was great for the mind, body and soul.

We had a brilliant time across our services with Harrogate Skills 4 Living as they took us on a wonderful virtual visit to their Harrogate Chocolate Factory.

Residents were thrilled to discover details about the chocolate-making process and the fascinating journey from bean to bar, all while enjoying some delicious sweet treats.

The Factory aims to employ people with learning disabilities and autism, involving them in all parts of the process, from sorting and roasting the beans to packaging and sales. The experience was truly enjoyed by all who joined this event.

We continue to celebrate a varied life enrichment programme and across our services we linked up with other Barchester care homes and hospitals up and down the country for some interactive Beat the Clock games.  

Our residents truly enjoyed solving word puzzles, conundrums and mathematical problems as part of Barchester’s very own game show series.

Everyone who joined had a fantastic time and enjoyed some friendly competition.

National Floral design Day recognises the art and history of floral design, for thousands of years, floral design has been an important cultural art form.

We love our flower craft activities here at  Mallard, and to celebrate National Floral Design Day, we created our own displays to display around our home.

With  flowers sourced from our local retailers and greenery from our extensive grounds, we had lots of fun creating a brightly colourful display, with lovely aromas.
