Activities at Orchard 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!

Christmas Jumper Day

12 Days of Christmas
Throughout December, our lovely Orchard staff participated in a fun and friendly competition over 12 days. They had to dress up in festive clothing and show their Christmas spirit as much as they could. At the end of the competition, staff and residents found it very difficult to pick a winner, as everyone did so well.
