It is important to us that each individual who we support can get as much from these as possible, so we try our best to arrange activities that reflect their interests and capabilities as best as possible, and encourage them to participate in any way they can.

Residents celebrate International Beer Day

Residents at Mount Vale care home had a fun-filled day as we raised a glass and tasted top ales in recognition of International Beer Day.

Our residents enjoyed a mini beer festival in the garden and got involved in a variety of interesting activities.

Some of our residents spent time learning about craft brewing and the history of beer, others preferred to join the beer tasting session in the garden and to try beers from all around the world.

It was a wonderful day, enjoyed by all.

Church services brought to Mount Vale

After having to carry out our monthly Church services virtually for the last year, we are delighted to now be able to welcome back Northallerton All Saints Church.

Residents had a relaxing afternoon enjoying singing hymns and listening to readings.

There were smiles all round, and it was a beautiful moment seeing how happy everyone was to welcome back our monthly church services.

Fun filled afternoon at Mount Vale

What a fabulous afternoon we have had here at Mount Vale!

After the last year we understand how tough it's been for everyone, our staff, residents and families. Now that things are starting to ease and the weather was on our side we decided to arrange a 'Fun Day' this afternoon to show our appreciation for everyone's patience, support and hard work the past year.

Staff pulled out all the stops for the team and residents and it was an afternoon filled of fun! The music was playing, drinks were flowing and games were in full swing.

Thank you to each and every one of you who made today special. Your team effort made the day and we couldn't have done it without you.

Residents and staff have a fun filled morning with Mr Motivator!

Residents and staff enjoyed an uplifting and fun fitness class with our local Mr Motivator this morning. He had everyone up moving and shaking, and never fails to brighten everyone's moods.

Our weekly fitness classes are part of our life enrichment programme where we provide activities to encourage our residents to keep active and moving as well as provide mental stimulation and plenty of fun!

We look forward to our class next week!

Residents find out about our mechanical friends!

We enjoyed a wonderful virtual introduction to the world of robots with V&A Dundee Curator, Kirsty Hassard.

Kirsty talked us through the history of robots and their early beginnings, the presentation traced the fascination of all things wired and wonderful and considered what the future might hold for our relationship with a multitude of mechanical machines.

It was absolutely thrilling to learn what robots can do now and what they might be able to do in the future.

Residents tour the magnificent gardens at Blenheim Palace

Residents and staff had a lovely time exploring the amazing gardens of Blenheim Palace through a virtual talk, hosted by the Historian - Antonia Keaney.

We enjoyed a virtual look at how the gardens at Blenheim have developed over the past 300 years - from the formality of Henry Wise through to the ‘natural’ landscape created by Capability Brown and beyond.

Everyone was very impressed by the many jewels hidden within the 150 acres of beautiful gardens.
