Activites at Newton House Care Home

Our teams are trained to enrich the lives of residents through stimulating the mind, body and soul, and taking the time to learn about each person to ensure everyone receives support that adds enrichment to their life.

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!

Visiting Grantham Art Gallery

Ladies from Newton House ventured out on the minibus to our local Art Gallery, to explore some of the fabulous work by the amazing artists in our town.

The ladies couldn’t believe what incredible work was showcased there, and Jean said “everywhere that you look, something different captures your eye.” It was wonderful to see the ladies enjoying browsing the gallery before sitting down to enjoy refreshments, an introductory demonstration to crochet and a good old natter!

We would like to say a huge thank you for your great hospitality, and we are looking forward to visiting again. Whilst we were busy at the Gallery, our fabulous residents at Newton House enjoyed their weekly game of bingo! The fun just never ends!

Celebrating Pride month!

We had so much fun as we celebrated the month of Pride.

Welcoming the most incredibly talented duo KJ & The Catt, for an afternoon of partying & laughter. Their person centred approach always warms our hearts, as does seeing just how much our amazing residents love their visits.

In true Newton House style, it wasn’t long before residents were moving and grooving & celebrating life!

Mike was delighted to join in with The Catt for a splendid duo, and resident ambassador Janet, was in her element as she dusted of her dancing shoes and hit the dance floor!

It was so wonderful to see our fabulous care team join in the fun & really enjoy the atmosphere.

Another wonderful day, celebrating life at Newton House!

Barchester get moving week

As part of Barchester’s get moving week
We’ve moved & grooved, our muscles on fleek,

Seated exercise and games galore,
Javelin throwing, covering the floor

Shaking our Pom Poms and enjoying a dance,
Moving with Grace and an impressive stance

We welcomed Lisa from the Grantham Athletics track,
Who taught us javelin, everyone had the knack

Virtual exercise proved to be fun,
Playing games and exercising in the sun

Have you been taking part and getting moving?
If not, then now’s the time to get the body grooving!

VE Day Celebrations

Residents enjoyed many fun, exciting and meaningful activities at Newton House as we celebrated VE Day’s 80th Anniversary.

Welcoming local school children for a VE Day-themed art class, live musical entertainment and garden parties all proved to be a huge success.  

It was wonderful listening to residents talking to the younger generation about their memories of the victorious day. The children listened in awe, and couldn’t believe some of the fascinating stories unfolding.

Gentleman's Club Outing

With the sun shining, it was the gentleman’s turn to venture out on the minibus for their weekly Gent’s club.

There were lots of chatter and giggles as we boarded the bus, with Albert demonstrating how his father would drive his car. It was wonderful hearing their fun stories as we headed off to the local village pub. After a lovely scenic drive, we reached our destination at the magnificent ‘Gregory Arms’ in Harlaxton.

The gents chose their drinks & snacks, and we had the most fabulous morning reminiscing about cars, motorbikes and working life.
