Activities at Meadow 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.

Life at Meadow Park Care Home
Dancing the afternoon away!
We had a fantastic afternoon when popular vocalist, Mark performed a medley of hits that had us dancing and singing along too. The live performance really put is in to the festive spirit as our Christmas parties continue before the big day arrives.
It truly made the event magical - the music, laughter, and holiday cheer filled the room, and it was lovely to see everyone enjoying themselves.
A trip to the local pub
We would like to thank the bar staff at the Cherry Tree pub for a warm welcome and a 'big shout out' to the chef who surprised our gents with a dish of potato skins and a variety of dips for them to enjoy on a recent pub trip.
Our gentleman enjoy their regular trips out into the community as part of our 'Gentlemen's Club' as they enjoy each others company and keep connected with their friends in the community. Where will we go next?
Residents enjoy festive shopping trip
Manor Walks in Cramlington was the perfect place to be out of the cold and damp into a festive Christmas wonderland - presents bought, purses empty and window shopping complete, it turned out to be a productive day.
With the shopping purchased it was time to enjoy a cuppa, tea, hot chocolate and a slice of cake before setting off home. Residents at home continued with their crafting activities. Christmas trees was the theme today, knitting, crochet, paint and card. End results hanging on the tree.
A Christmas Carol
Across our homes we’ve had the most wonderful time celebrating the festive season with a special screening of 2020’s OLD VIC: IN CAMERA – A Christmas Carol.
This beautifully staged production brought the magic of Dickens’ classic tale right into our homes. A huge thank you to The Old Vic theatre for sharing this incredible performance with us. It was a truly wonderful experience.
The Holly & the Ivy
Staff and residents across our homes were treated to an interactive virtual Christmas-inspired table decorating masterclass, courtesy of talented master florist, Kathryn Delve.
Kathryn is an independent florist based in Somerset, she specialises in creating unique wedding and event flowers. She takes much of her inspiration for her displays from the beautiful scenery that surrounds her home and the changing seasons and colours.
During the workshop, residents were invited to join Kathryn to make beautiful Christmas-themed table decorations.
