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.

Life at Melbourn Springs Care Home
Boules Tournament
Some afternoon fun here at Melbourn Springs - Boules was the game of choice and the competition was certainly on with our residents. Well done to our winner Brian - we can’t believe you’ve never played before!
Cheese and Wine Tasting afternoon
One of today’s activities was Wine and Cheese tasting. This went down an absolute treat with our residents.
We had lots of different varieties of Cheese and Wine including alcoholic and and non-alcoholic too - what a perfect way to spend a Friday afternoon!
Afternoon Tea and Singalong
Tea with freshly made Scones - complete with Jam and Cream!
Our residents enjoyed a good old singalong and there was laughter all round as everyone enjoyed the delicious Afternoon Tea hosted by our Activities Coordinator - Sam.
Another special memory shared together at Melbourn Springs on what truly was a lovely afternoon.
Les performs for us
Our residents and staff at Melbourn Springs were delighted to welcome Les to perform for us. The sing-along was thoroughly enjoyed and Les sure didn’t disappoint! “What a fantastic afternoon - he really is very talented and the strength in his voice is tremendous!” said Vera.
You certainly have the seal of approval Les and we all look forward to welcoming you back very soon!
Also, a big thank you to Andy from Newlings of Royston for enabling this to happen - it has been a long time coming but was well worth the wait and so good to welcome you and Les in our home!
Baking Club
Victoria Sponge, Lemon Curd Sponge and Sugar Free Cupcakes were on the menu in our Baking Club with our Activities Coordinator Sam this week.
Our residents certainly didn’t disappoint and Joy - (who “has been baking Cakes for years!”) certainly shared some top baking tips too!
The final results were absolutely delicious and thoroughly enjoyed with fresh, hot Cup of Tea.
Higher or Lower?!?
Higher or lower comes in more ways than one! Movement to music style and in Card games too!
Our residents have had a fun filled morning and have certainly worked up an appetite ready for their delicious lunch.
