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!

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

Life at Newton House Care Home
Baking Bread
Our lovely resident Mark had a morning of baking bread to share with his fellow residents with their soup at lunch time!
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.
Christmas Party
The final Christmas party of 2018 was on our Watergate unit. There was jazz, Christmas music, and plenty of delicious refreshments.
Honouring the Fallen
On a very cold and windy day on 9th November, we went to Lincoln City to pay our respects to those who have fallen in the line of duty.
We visited the International Bomber Command Centre, which pays homage to the 62 nations who served or supported the Command. Covering 5 continents, the stories of their involvement is one that is rarely known.
The Walls of Names that we saw remember almost 58,000 men and women who lost their lives serving or supporting Bomber Command during WWII. The residents even found their own surnames on the walls – it was a very emotional trip!
Jo Jingles
We had a fantastic time during our fortnightly Jo Jingles session at Newton House, singing, dancing and playing with musical instruments. Residents also enjoyed watching the children take part and they can’t wait for the next session.
Shadows from the Past
'Shadows from the Past' singer, Eric, came along for a morning of entertainment on our Memory Lane community. We were all up dancing, and our Carer, Rizz, gave us a wonderful performance at the end.
