Activities at Mulberry Court Care Home

The team at Mulberry Court works hard to support and encourage residents to participate in both group and individual activities, based around their preferences and lifestyle choices. We take time to get to know each person, sitting with them and listening to them speak about their lives, interests, and aspirations. We have access to our own minibus so outings to nearby places of interest are available; for example local museums, art galleries, garden centres, and public houses. We also host themed evenings, such as 'Quiz and Meal-in-a-Basket', 'The Races (Greyhounds, Horses)', and 'Takeaway and Movie Night' that we also encourage relatives to come to. We believe lifestyle choices and activities are one of the most important aspects of a care home, and it is essential that we help residents to have fulfilling and enjoyable lives.

Halloween

Residents decorated pre-carved pumpkins with Autumnal flowers for Halloween. A more light hearted and not so scary activity for Halloween with gorgeous results! The display was amazing and created much delight in our reception area for everyone to enjoy.

Residents enjoy a Halloween virtual cooking demo

Residents had a lovely time joining Chef Alex Connell from Vegetarian for Life for a Halloween-inspired virtual cooking demo.

Alex demonstrated how to prepare a few themed dishes, such as root vegetable tagine, roasted butternut squash mac-n-cheese, chocolate pots with piped biscuits and flapjacks.

Our residents were delighted to be a part of this lovely virtual culinary session by tasting the vegetarian dishes from the comfort of our home.

Watercolour masterclass

Another lovely afternoon for residents at Mulberry Court as we sketched and then finished with watercolour painting, a little 1950’s background music set the perfect atmosphere for producing masterpieces.

Gardening club

The long awaited Gardening Club started this week at Mulberry Court with very enthusiastic members displaying their wisdom and experience of gardening to the group!

The spring bulbs all planted in brightly painted pots, now out in the garden, next weeks winter hanging baskets, let our green fingered residents do their magic!!

Home celebrate 20-years service

A surprise celebration this week for our Senior Carer Angela Horrocks. For the last 20 years Angela has worked tirelessly with dedication and incredible compassion for all her residents. A true team member with a heart of gold, Angela is loved by all her residents who came along and kept the surprise going and joined in thanking her with all her colleagues for all her hard work.

Residents enjoy a virtual reading and writing event

We had a great time joining journalist and novelist, Mike Gayle, for an intriguing virtual interview, during which he shared top tips for creative writing with our residents and read passages from his latest book, All the Lonely People.

We were thrilled to find out about Mike’s background, to understand what led him to become a writer and his creative process.

It was a lovely talk, enjoyed by all, especially by our keen writers at the home.
