Activities at Newton House Care Home
Our home is always full of life, and we can thank our wonderful Activities Coordinators for this. Dedication to creating a unique and interesting activities programme is what sets us apart from other homes. We always take into consideration that some people would prefer to pursue their own interests, which is why our team strive to incorporative activities that cater to a wide range of tastes and hobbies. Our trips out are always fun and exciting as well, and residents are guaranteed to return with stories to tell their loved ones!

Life at Newton House Care Home
Home host cultural themed day
Newton House celebrated Black History Month with residents and staff. Black History Month was originally founded 37 years ago by Akyaaba Addai-Sebo. He had come to London as a refugee from Ghana in 1984.
Our Cultural themed days are proving to be a great success, as we celebrate the amazing cultures of Newton House Team.
Today’s celebrations were all about African culture & food, which also fitted in with celebrating Black History Month throughout our life enrichment programme for October.
Virtual afternoon at the theatre
Residents across our services had a fantastic time enjoying the virtual screening of Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em. Frank Spencer’s comical misadventures had everyone laughing and it was wonderful to see so many happy faces.
Thank you to everyone who joined us and a special thanks to The Barn Theatre in the Cotswolds for bringing this stage adaptation of the beloved sitcom to our screens.
Cheese and wine evening!!
