Activities at Sherwood Court Care Home
Our home is always full of life, and we can thank our wonderful Activities Coordinators for this. Dedication to creating a unique and interesting activities programme is what sets us apart from other homes. We always take into consideration that some people would prefer to pursue their own interests, which is why our team strive to incorporative activities that cater to a wide range of tastes and hobbies. Our trips out are always fun and exciting as well, and residents are guaranteed to return with stories to tell their loved ones!

Luncheon Club
The fun is endless here at Sherwood Court and we enjoy our regular luncheon club at our local pub who cater for every need. Our ladies recently enjoyed a trip for a spot of lunch, enjoying an afternoon of conversation whilst tucking into a delicious mouth-watering lunch. Thank you Sherwood Pub for your hospitality and we look forward to seeing you soon.
Flower power
It was all about flower power here at Sherwood Court as our ladies enjoyed a morning of flower arranging, it was a fun way to pass the time enjoying good company, conversation over a cup of tea sharing their thoughts on the best flowers. This popular session enables residents to be creative and use their imagination, encouraging use of fingers and hands and a great stress reliever!

She has demonstrated her dedication and loyalty to this home and its residents year after year.

Mayfair of Nightingales
Residents across our services had a fantastic time joining Mandy Morrow for a virtual walking tour to learn about the ‘Herstory’ of Mayfair. The Mayfair of Nightingales may be long gone but it still holds a 20th century charm. Birthplace to the late Queen Elizabeth II, home to one of WWII's most decorated female war heroes and a tale of a wealthy Aristocrat and one of France's favourite designers.
We were delighted to take a walk down memory lane and discover stories from one of London's most iconic areas. The experience was truly enjoyed by all.
