Activities at North Park 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 North Park Care Home
Wine and Cheese
Wine and cheese afternoons are a firm favourite pastime here at North Park. Residents like nothing better than to get together with a selection of cheeses, crackers, antipasto and wine. We usually enjoy a sing along and dance on these afternoons and as one of our family members stated “it’s a proper party home here, we love visiting and joining in”
Music
We love music here at North Park and have found it stimulates the memories, can ease pain, relieve the symptoms of depression, reduce stress and lift the mood. Our residents love to sing, dance and continue to play their musical instruments or join in with percussion.
In his younger days John travelled the UK playing guitar in a band and continues to enjoy playing for residents and staff and we enjoy listening to him too.
Coffee Morning
Our coffee mornings are always a great success, held on the second Thursday of every month there is always plenty of scrumptious cakes, biscuits and pastries to delight the taste buds.
Why not pop along between 10am and noon, meet our lovely residents and dedicated staff whilst sampling our yummy treats.
Baking
Maintaining our residents life skills and hobbies is important to us at North Park. Residents enjoy regular baking sessions where bye they choose what they would like to showcase that week and the rest of us enjoy the fruits of their labour.
St David's Day
Birthdays and national days are always party days at North Park. We like nothing better than a good get together with our finest china and favourite tipple on hand.
Historic Royal Palaces
Our residents were treated to a special virtual sensory storytelling session. Together with Art Historian Jon Sleigh and the Historic Royal Palaces community team, we explored several royal palaces through the theme of food, dining and celebration!
We enjoyed a fantastic taste-a-long experience from the comfort of our home, from Tudor treats to Stuart sweets. A lovely time was had by all.
