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.

Activities Co-ordinator

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.

There were lots of smiles and laughter this week as we made some crispy cakes as requested and chosen by our residents. I'm told they tasted good as well but didn't last long!

Classic Christmas Cars

We were delighted to receive a visit from the VW club with the vehicles adorned in festive decorations, we had a good look around the cars and then enjoyed mulled wine, mince pies and singing some carols all together.

Antler Game

We enjoyed a fun morning with a new game for the season - it was great fun to play and we all really enjoyed throwing the hoops to hook them on to the antlers!
