Activities at Melbourn Springs Care Home
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.
Read our brochure 'Life-enriching activities' for more information about life in our care homes.

Christmas 2021
What an amazing Christmas week we’ve had here at Melbourn Springs from preparing our home festive decorations, singing lots of carols together and enjoying enormous amounts of delicious food from our fantastic Chef team.
Residents also received their presents from Santa’s own little helper - complete in her very own Sleigh! (Thank you Rob - Head of Maintenance)
The Queen also made an appearance as did Charades with resident Betty adding, “Thank you to everyone and all the staff for making the day so incredibly special. I have enjoyed this Christmas tremendously!”
