Activities at Sherwood Court Care Home

Here at Sherwood Court, resident Peter, made the most of the dry afternoon spending some time in our garden. Peter noticed the apple tree was blooming and got himself a tub and began picking red and green apples, he was in his element and reminded him of his allotment days.

Peter gave our chef Carol his collection and is very much looking forward to tomorrows apple pie. Delicious.

Here at Sherwood Court, resident Pat enjoyed a true birthday party. Pats family had provided an Elvis tribute for all our residents to enjoy alongside the birthday lady herself!

Residents, family members and staff thoroughly enjoyed the experience alongside Pat and her family, and we are so lucky to have family members like hers to have all our residents engaged in a wonderful afternoon.

Our kitchen staff made and supplied a delicious birthday cake, candles were lit, and Elvis had us all singing happy birthday, followed by divulging on the tasty cake! 

Here at Sherwood Court, residents, family members and staff had a wonderful afternoon, enjoying Al Harts 'Music in Minds' performance. Al comes to visit us once a month and always blows the roof off the building, using different instrument's, amazing music and some good humour, which always has everyone laughing and over all a fully entertaining time.

Here is activities coordinator, Hayley, having a ball with resident Pat, who is always up for a boogie.

Here at Sherwood Court, residents have been treated and indulged in a lovely coffee morning, supplied by the Spar Shop from James Hall.

We hold great connections with the group and always enjoy our visitors coming to share their time with our residents and reminisce on favourite past times.

We do love a community morning.

Here at Sherwood Court, our home was visited by Gabby, who is a ABBA tribute act from Mini Concerts.

Residents, family members and staff, enjoyed an hour performance, singing and dancing away with each other, family members also engaged with other residents encouraging them to get up and dance as well as wheel chair dancing.

Music really does bring joy and happiness to our home and we are very much looking to our next entertainer.

Here at Sherwood Court, residents have enjoyed a time in the garden enjoying the beautiful morning sunshine. The resident were greeted by Tilly the chocolate Labrador who warned their hearts. Tilly is 10 years old and thoroughly enjoyed the attention and treats given by the residents. After spending time with Tilly and reminiscing over their previous pets, we residents were served tea, coffee and delicious treats from our talented kitchen staff.

Here at Sherwood Court, residents from both our Memory Lane unit and Nursing unit embarked on a real life D Day tour, in Fleetwood. Activities Coordinators, Hayley and Morag, planned a trip to Fleetwood Memorial park, where the community held a D Day event. We got there just in time for the service held by the Mayor, which was followed by the Last Post tribute. We then went around all the stalls where there was replicas of war vehicles, weapon systems and even a spit fire, safe to say our residents thoroughly enjoyed their day out, even the picnic on the mini bus.

Here at Sherwood Court, we have kick started our week off by having Mini Concerts performer, Gabby, come and put on a ABBA tribute performance for us. It has been 50 years since ABBA won the Eurovision contest back in 1974, and what a performance Gabby put on for us. We went through all of ABBA’s greatest hits including Waterloo, Dancing Queen, MAMMA MIA and many more, our resident’s absolutely loved it. Kathleen from our nursing unit and Liz from our memory lane unit, sat next to each other, their hands where in the air the whole time, bellowing out the words to all the songs Gabby sang.

Mini Concerts always provide the best entertainment for our residents.

Here at Sherwood Court today, we have a new resident residing with us, Pat. Pat is very much famous in our home already due to her twin sister Pam also residing with us... How cute do they look together?

We are very much looking forward to seeing their special bond and also being able to apart of it with them.

Welcome to Sherwood Court, Pat.
