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
The great outdoors!
Residents have been making the most of the finer weather. Our memory lane community benefit from an enclosed courtyard with garden furniture and potting beds for all to enjoy. It’s like a little sun trap out there and the residents love it! We enjoy the great outdoors.
Easter egg hunt
Residents really enjoyed getting out into the homes courtyard garden for a very special Easter egg hunt, and they were accompanied by the Easter Bunny himself, residents dug up the beds to find chocolate eggs and treats and there was lots of laughter to be heard! Happy Easter.
Easter celebrations
Residents enjoyed a jam packed Easter with themed arts and crafts, making chocolate nests, Easter Egg Hunts, enjoying lots of delicious food and drink, decorating the home and much more! We love a ‘holiday’ and a chance to celebrate here at Meadow Park.
Community spirit
Residents of Meadow Park took delight in supporting their local group, who take a drive out around Northumberland every year to raise money and collect chocolate Easter Eggs which are then distributed to children’s wards in our local hospitals over the Easter period.
Residents clapped, waved and cheered as around 500 motorbikes passed the home, all tooting their horns and waving back to us. It was a lovely sight, and such a good cause.
Mothering Sunday
Staff and Residents enjoyed a lovely Mothering Sunday, with bucks fizz for breakfast and a traditional home cooked roast lunch especially prepared by the homes hospitality team. A wonderful day was had by all - the home was filled with love, flowers and families.
Comic Relief
Staff and residents donned anything they had red in their wardrobes to celebrate comic relief. Head chef Mandy made a lovely spread of homemade cakes, along with their very own red noses.
