Activities at Melbourn Springs Care Home
Our teams are trained to enrich the lives of residents through stimulating the mind, body and soul, and taking the time to learn about each person to ensure everyone receives support that adds enrichment to their life. Ensuring that our social events offer fun and adventure is a major focus of the ethos of our home; it’s important that those we support can enjoy an active and social lifestyle. Of course, there will always be those who prefer peace and quiet, and in these instances, a cup of tea and a chat will always be welcomed.

Life at Melbourn Springs Care Home
Coffee morning with friends
Frank the all-round entertainer
Yesterday we had a very special afternoon when we were visited for the first time in a long time by the uniquely talented Frank and his 'hose-pipe' trumpet.........he also brought his traditional trumpet and keyboard with him and treated the residents to his full rendition of all-time classics which he both sang and played the music to.
A genuine one-man band and the residents absolutely loved having him at Melbourn Springs which was apparent by the singing and foot-tapping that took place throughout.
Thank you Frank, it was a pleasure to have you with us!!
Trev the Great Entertainer
The songs were classic and the interactions between Trev and the residents were so wholesome. We very much enjoy Trev coming to Melbourn Springs and we look forward to seeing him again in the not-too-distant future.
Football's coming home
Based on the skills and fancy footwork on display it is only a matter of time before football comes home!!
A sunny walk around Melbourn
Whilst there was a definite early spring chill in the air, it was lovely to be out and about and taking in the fresh air. With the weather set fair for at least the rest of the week, we will be aiming do have as many outdoor activities as possible.
Two homes......one amazing Virtual Reality experience
They experienced walking around the Titanic, swimming with tropical fish and exploring the solar system, which were just a few of the many options available.
Once everybody had finished we were treated to tea and cakes from the catering team at Margaret House.
We will be enjoying another VR event with Margaret House later in the month, this time at Melbourn Springs and we very much look forward to welcoming them all to our wonderful home.
