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!

Life at Orchard House Care Home

We have made a Christmas lounge to give residents the feeling of a cold Christmas day.
Pretty in Pink!

Goodbye, Trevor!
We want to say good luck and farewell to our Home Trainer, Trevor Jones, who is leaving us. It's a shame to say that Trevor will be a great loss to Orchard House, but we wish him the best of luck with his new job role.
Wear it Pink!
Everyone at Orchard House dressed up in pink for breast cancer awareness - it was a great success and staff & residents really enjoyed the day.
Congratulations, Karen!
Well done to Karen Waugh for passing her Care Practitioner exam. Everyone at Orchard House is very proud of what you have achieved this year.
World Food Day
We had a variety of tasters from Italy, China, India, Mexico, America - and not forgetting our English Sunday roast.
