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!

Playing Pool

We enjoyed a trip out to the local snooker hall. Pool had been a keen interest of 3 residents when they were younger and we had a great time reminiscing!

LeafBug

LeafBug

We had a fun morningwith LeafBug Interactive Music Workshops.

Entertainer, Shirley, is musically talented; she plays the guitar and sings, but is also experienced in various mental health conditions. This combination means that she can connect with her audience in a captivating and sympathetic way.

Participants had the opportunity to either sing or try out a variety of carefully selected percussion instruments. Some participants chose to express themselves to the music in different ways, and some just listened and enjoyed the experience. 

Trip to the Supermarket

Trip to the Supermarket

Two of our residents needed a few things from our local supermarket so we went to have a good browse around. During the trip we had lots of reminiscence of how much the prices of goods has changed over the years.

Baking Bread

Christmas at Newton

The communities at Newton had a great time celebrating Christmas. We hosted parties in each of the 4 units, and residents spent lots of time dancing with loved ones. We even had some pet therapy chickens come in over the festive period, which residents loved making a fuss of.
