Activities at Mill Court 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.
Activities are an integral part of life at our care home. We want to ensure that the people we support have as much fun as possible during their time with us, so it’s important that our activities programme is created with the interests of residents in mind. Our skilled Activities Coordinators bring a certain uniqueness to the home that can’t be found anywhere else, and which is reflected in the activities they organise.

Marius Sidoriuc
Activities Coordinator
Hello, my name is Marius Sidoriuc and I am an Activities Coordinator at Mill Court.
I joined the Barchester family in 2021, initially as care assistant and soon after as activities coordinator. Thanks to our fantastic residents, management team and colleagues, I felt I belong to an amazing community here, in Barchester.
As in September 2024 I relocated from Harton Grange (South Shields) to Mill Court, in Guildford, I worried about letting behind an absolutely amazing management team, residents and colleagues.
I found here, at Mill Court, the same fantastic atmosphere and support from management team, residents and colleagues.
I'm so grateful that I had the privilege to fundraising for our wonderful Barchesters Charitable Foundation and I finished the Great North Run half marathon in 2 hours and 9 minutes. Also, through a joint project with a charity in South Shields we won a grant worth nearly £20k thanks to the National Lottery Funding.
I started my journey in healthcare in 2018. I love to support elderly people, especially those diagnosed with dementia, and to empower them to use all the facilities provided by our company. I completed a few courses on dementia and activities (NAPA, level 2) and I finished a level three apprenticeship in adult care. I have met some amazing people who guided my understanding of dementia.
I like to be part of a whole team, including the fantastic management, hospitality and maintenance departments, promoting a person centred approach for each resident and I'm glad to know that each person's preferences and abilities are respected and promoted.
