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
International Flower Day
To mark International Flower Day residents at North Park turned their hands to flower arranging. In small groups residents trimmed the flowers, picked their favourite flower combinations, some choosing scents over colours, others going for the brightest colours they could find and made posies for their rooms and to decorate the corridors and lounges.
While diligently working on their creations conversations turned to their favourite flowers, the bouquets they receive from loved ones and the thought they always put into choosing flower gifts for their friends, families and spouses over the years.
One resident recalled how he always took a small bunch of seasonal flowers home to his wife every Friday ‘pay day’ as he called it, to show her he thought about her and appreciated her while he was out at work. Lovely memories shared by all.
Christmas party
What an amazing afternoon and evening we have had at North Park for our residents Christmas party. Staff pulled out all the stops to provide fun, laughter and frivolity throughout as well as a delicious festive buffet and nibbles.
Gift received from Morrisons
North Park Care Centre would like to say thank you to Morrisons for the beautiful hamper for staff and the cards and gifts for residents. We hope you all have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Birthday celebrations
One of our lovely residents became a little emotional this afternoon when we stopped our quiz and presented her with a beautiful birthday cake as we celebrated her birthday. Happy birthday from all at North Park!
Supper club
Tonights Supper Club was all about the 1950's. Residents were read passages from a book, shared experiences, tasted authentic sweeties and sandwiches of the time. A great evening of fun stories and memories and everyone is looking forward to the next club meeting.
Christmas Day
Residents had a lovely Christmas Day when they woke up to find Santa had been and left bulging stockings at the end of their beds. After enjoying a festive breakfast staff gave out their gifts before enjoying a lavish, traditional Christmas dinner. Fun and games ensued during the afternoon after raising a glass to toast the Queen at the end of speech. A fun and festive day was had by all.
