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.

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.

Cookery Club
Cookery Club
Residents were busy having fun mixing and whisking away yesterday making gorgeous lemon cup cakes, the smell from the freshly baking cakes was divine! I think we will have to double up the ingredients next time as they didn't last long before they were all gone!
Pumpkin Carving
We enjoyed a fun visit this week to Mighty Oaks Day Nursery & Preschool to join with the children in carving the pumpkins they collected previously from Parley Pumpkin Patch
We enjoyed hearing all about the children's plans for Halloween parties and dressing up in their different costumes!
Staff Bake Off
We had a fabulous afternoon raising money for Alzheimer's Society last week with a staff bake off. We had plenty of good entries from staff and also a donation from Mighty Oaks Day Nursery & Preschool - we raised £65 in total.We enjoyed entertainment by Nick Sellers for us all to sing and dance along to whilst enjoying tasting the array of cakes we had made.
The winner of the competition was crowned and well done goes to Kirsty and Chloe Stone for the cake featuring staff from the home and 2nd place to Brian our activities coordinator for his truly scrumptious cake.
On the Water
What a wonderful day at sea!
We are so thankful to The Friends of Dolphin's who are made up of fabulous volunteers and made the day so special for our residents. They really enjoyed being out of the water and the kindness shown in showing us the maps and allowing us to be up front and steer the boat.
Caring Canines
We welcomed our new Caring Canine into Parley Place this week, Nelly was at home straight away meeting our residents for kisses and belly rubs. We look forward to her next visit.
