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.

'Our' Mayor Shane
We would like to congratulate Shane, who is one of our Activities Coordinators, on becoming Mayor of Waltham Abbey.
We are so proud of him and our residents were overjoyed seeing him wearing his chain of office. We can’t wait to book him for an official appearance so he can visit our residents in his official capacity.

Arts and crafts for international nurses day
A wonderful afternoon spent with Creative Mojo Hertford and Stevenage. Residents loved their session painting and colouring and enjoyed making something for the nurses to say thank you for all they do for the residents
Coronation party
This weekend we celebrated our new king by throwing a big coronation party involving residents from every unit
Our lovely residents were each given a flag as they entered the main lounge to watch the fantastic Jamie Callis singing live
Our residents, family & friends sang along and waived their flags with pride and were then treated to tea & cake in the cafe area
As you can see fun was had by all involved
super cute bunnies pop in.
Thank you once again Performing Pets for a wonderful visit today our residents certainly enjoyed every minute with these fluffy baby bunnies
Was great to hear all the stories and reminiscing off all the different names our residents had for their pet rabbits when they was children

The Paternoster House Gardening Club Continues To Delight
Phase 1 and Phase 2 of our Gardening Club are now complete but we still have a grand finale planned! Residents and staff have been working together to fill our tubs, flower beds, pots and hanging baskets with beautiful plants, many of which have been kindly donated by supportive families as well as our local Tesco store.
