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.

Life at Paternoster House Care Home
Our Carers Are Amazing
To celebrate national carers week here is a little message from some of our residents at Paternoster House to say thank you to our wonderful staff.
We are all very thankful for the incredible work of our carers, who work tirelessly; many of whom take on more responsibilities, work longer shifts and do whatever they can to put the care of our residents first.
We appreciate all the work that you put into making the life's of our residents your number one priority and always going the extra mile.
Prosecco In The Sunshine
What better way to end the week then to sit in the sunshine with a glass of Prosecco?
Our residents today enjoyed an afternoon in the garden soaking up the sunshine with a glass of Prosecco while listening to the best of the 50's.
Here at Paternoster House, we have several beautiful outdoor areas and enjoy making the most of them during the nice weather
Jubilee Fun!
Today Paternoster House celebrated the Queen's Platinum Jubilee with a special Jubilee garden party.
With live entertainment and plenty of delicious food everyone had a fantastic time celebrating this special day.
Morris Dancers At Paternoster House
Today Paternoster House were joined by the Chingford Morris Men for a fantastic performance as part of our continued Platinum Jubilee celebrations.
Morris dancing is a form of English folk dance usually accompanied by music. It is based on rhythmic stepping and the execution of choreographed figures by a group of dancers, usually wearing bell pads on their shins. Implements such as sticks, swords and handkerchiefs may also be wielded by the dancers.
We all had a fantastic afternoon and would like to say a special thank you to the Chingford Morris Men for their outstanding show.
Flower Arranging Class
With the Chelsea Flower Show in full swing, we have been inspired here at Paternoster House to get creative with our flower arrangements and decorate the home.
Our green-fingered residents have been hard at work creating arrangements and having a lot of fun bringing colour to the home.
Fun In The Sun
An ice cold beer in the sunshine with your friends, is there anything better in life?
Our residents have been soaking up the sun in our gardens and courtyards this week whilst enjoying cold drinks and ice-creams before heading back inside to watch one of our live music concerts or take part in some of the fantastic group activities.
We are looking forward to using our beautiful and extensive gardens more frequently as the weather improves.
