Activities at Parley Place Care Home
We understand that the people we support have passions and interests that could be difficult to pursue after moving into a care home – but that doesn’t mean we don’t encourage them to try! Some hobbies can define a person, so our Activities Coordinators are dedicated to ensuring that everyone we support is able to do what makes them happy to the best of their abilities. Social events are organised with individual tastes in mind and with the idea that residents have the opportunity to try new and exciting things.
Brian Ramsay
I love being a friendly face for our residents. A day in their lives should be filled with the care they deserve and enriched with activities. We embrace each and every moment and make memories, I have many skills and a passion to provide our residents with the social interactions, lots of activities, smiles, laughter and fun.

Life at Parley Place Care Home
Noughts and Crosses
A few competitive games of Noughts and Crosses took place at our last community cafe - everyone wanted to win, including Tracey, our General Manager! It was all pretty even scoring though and I am sure we will be having a re-match soon.
movement to music
We had a fun time at this week's movement to music class- lots of laughter with a little bit of hard work, great for keeping our brain and body's moving. Look forward to seeing Jackie again next month.
Burns Celebrations
We had a fabulous afternoon yesterday with a traditional burns celebrations - the haggis was brought into to our resident by Brian, accompanied by Allan on the bagpipes - he completed the Address to the Haggis and it was then served for our residents to try.
Helpful Hounds Visit
We had a lovely visit from Helpful Hounds assistance dogs, everyone fell in love with Raffi and we are looking forward to seeing them again soon!
International Flower Day
For international flower day we spent the morning doing some flower arranging for our dining room tables. We spent the afternoon doing a quiz with our community - all themed around flowers.
Cooking Club
Cooking club choice was mint cheesecakes this week - we had great fun making them and even more fun eating them afterwards!
