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!
Newton House Activities Team
Amanda, Sabrina, Karen and Jill make up our fantastic Activities Team here at Newton House.

Friendship Group supporting Dementia UK
Another fantastic friendship group today at Newton House, with residents meeting up with their friends and enjoying a game of dominoes and bendominoes.
We also celebrated “time for a cuppa” for Dementia UK with tea, coffee, cake & biscuits.
The fun and games finished with a Royal Family Quiz, which is one of their favourite subjects, and their knowledge was incredible with not one question answered incorrectly.
There is still plenty of time to purchase a raffle ticket for our “Time for a Cuppa” raffle, these can be purchased at our reception. We have some fantastic prizes, which we will post on Facebook tomorrow.
♥️Thank you to the amazing people who have donated these gifts for such a wonderful cause. ♥️

Newton House First Trip Out!
Newton House have finally been able to take their residents out in their minibus. The residents enjoyed a trip to local, Belvoir Castle, Dirty Duck and even got lucky enough to see some of our carers and their families.
It was so nice to be able to take the residents out in the minibus, as they waited for everyone to congregate in the reception area to wave them off all you could hear was laughter and chatter. It was so nice to feel like we are one step closer to normality.
Thank you to our fantastic activities team for taking our first few residents on a trip out, I am sure the next few residents are already lined up and ready to go!
