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
Barchy Bear's Holiday
Barchy Bear, Barchester's cuddly mascot, recently returned from his very first caravan holiday. He visited the beach at Bunacaimbe Bay and was even invited into the cab on the Royal Highlander, also know as 'The Hogwarts Express'. He's back in the General Manager's office now at Meadow Park, exhausted from the adventure!
1940s Day
Residents attended a 1940s event during Dementia Action Week. They went to the local pub/restaurant, the Block & Tackle, and enjoyed the whole day. Staff members, Susan, Julie, Lacey and General Manager, Suzanne, all volunteered to dress up for this event.
Dementia Action Week
We played some rookie golf with the Royal Voluntary Services, had a music therapy session and reminisced about the '80s during Dementia Action Week.
Out & About
Residents enjoyed a shopping trip out to the local supermarket. They always loved spending time in our local community.
Rookie Golf
Residents enjoyed two full hours playing golf for the first time and look forward to a rematch.
Keeping the Mind Active
We were joined by a singer from Mind Active, who brought her accordion player with her to entertain residents.
