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
Scrabble Match
A favourite game in the home is Scrabble.
We love a good match to have some fun and get the brain working coming up with creative words to try and get the highest scores. There is definitely going to be a re-match soon.
Baking Cakes
We've been baking and the overall cake request was for lemon drizzle cakes. Iris had the perfect recipe so her and Brian set to it, the results were delicious- request has gone in for chocolate cake next week!
Welcome to the family
Our first residents moved in to the home this week to make Parley Place their home.
We look forward to getting to know them, welcoming their friends and family to the family and to continue to build our community.
Opening Event
We were delighted to open our home with a stunning VIP event. All the team worked together to make the event a success and showcase what we will be providing to the community.
Groundbreaking
Barchester Healthcare has broken ground on a brand new 68 bed luxury care home development in West Parley.
Parley Place Care Home is being built by Acheson Construction and will provide personalised residential, dementia and respite care for older people in West Parley and the surrounding areas from late 2022.
The luxury new home has been designed with residents’ comfort in mind with a café for residents to socialise and enjoy freshly baked treats, spa bathrooms for a luxury bath time experience, beautiful en-suite bedrooms with smart TVs, a choice of comfortable lounges, a cinema for an authentic movie experience, in-house hair and beauty salon for a little bit of pampering and fantastic views of the surrounding countryside
Senior Property Development Manager at Barchester, Grant Jensen, commented: “We are really excited to get this project under way. Parley Place Care Home will be a fantastic addition to the local community.”
Shane Mason, Regional Director for Acheson Construction, added: “We are delighted to be once again working with our much-valued client Barchester Healthcare. We are looking forward to the build process and working closely with the Barchester team. This is a fantastic looking building sited in a great location. Together with our management team and carefully chosen contractors, we will deliver this project as planned in late 2022.”
