Activities at Paternoster House Care Home

Our specialist activities staff are committed to organising a mix of activities and events for residents and the local community to get involved in, including trips out to local places of interest in our minibus and visits from entertainers and musicians. It is important to us that each individual who we support can get as much from these as possible, so we try our best to arrange activities that reflect their interests and capabilities as best as possible, and encourage them to participate in any way they can. We also encourage relatives to join with activities and events as often as they can.

Music for Health

What a fabulous day full of music and song! 

We started the day with a spot of karaoke as Sandy and Shane got our residents and guests up singing and dancing. Before being thoroughly entertained by the amazing 'Anastasia' from Music for Health. It was all maracas, shakers and tambourine tapping as we danced to the rhythmic sounds.
