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!

Halloween at Sherwood Court
A cracking afternoon here at Sherwood Court with our spooky tea party! We had spooky treats, music and a fancy dress competition. Thank you to all who came and joined us. It was such a lovely afternoon spending time with residents and their friends and family.
Royal Botanic Garden
Our homes enjoyed a wonderful virtual tour of the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh with Community Engagement Manager, Charlotte Walker, and Botanic Cottage Operations Co-ordinator, Laura Gallagher.
The residents were thrilled to learn more about the history of the beautiful Garden, which is now a home to an impressive plant collection from around the world.
Charlotte and Laura also gave a demonstration of making fresh herbal tea and were happy to answer our questions. The virtual experience was truly enjoyed by all who joined.
Live entertainment with Abi
Residents at Sherwood Court have enjoyed a busy day of fun activities before sitting down to enjoy a live performance by popular vocalist, Abi.
Abi performed a medley on songs that had everyone toe-tapping, dancing and singing along too! It was lovely to watch our residents interaction and Abi’s performance was a huge it!
We look forward to her next visit.
