Activities at Mount Vale Care Home
Our specialist activities staff are committed to organising a mix of activities and events for residents and the local community to get involved in, including trips out to local places of interest in our minibus and visits from PAT dogs, entertainers and musicians. 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. We also encourage relatives to join with activities and events as often as they can.

Care Home Open Day
To celebrate Care Home Open Day, we hosted an art exhibition and invited local artists and Northallerton College GCSE and A Level students to come and display their work.
This was our second art exhibition and we are looking forward to an even bigger one next year to help promote our home. It was a huge success and we had so many compliments over the 3 days it was held.
