Activities at Snowdrop Place Care Home

Our teams are trained to enrich the lives of residents through stimulating the mind, body and soul, and taking the time to learn about each person to ensure everyone receives support that adds enrichment to their life.

Activities are an integral part of life at our care home. We want to ensure that the people we support have as much fun as possible during their time with us, so it’s important that our activities programme is created with the interests of residents in mind. Our skilled Activities Coordinators bring a certain uniqueness to the home that can’t be found anywhere else, and which is reflected in the activities they organise.

Employee of the Month December

Lisa in our housekeeping department had been nominated by residents and fellow colleagues for our Employee of the Month for December, celebrated with a gathering of our lovely residents who were delighted to present her award and gift. Being part of a team in our home is so important, however Lisa’s individual attention to detail, care with each and every resident she interacts and takes time with makes her stand out. Knowing residents and what makes them smile, it can be a bright addition to their day to chat with Lisa. Keeping our home looking sparkling within the team, we really do appreciate all you do

Disco and Dance

We really had the most fabulous time at our Disco and Dance event on Friday Welcoming lots of those locally who are living with Dementia and their loved ones, along with our residents and brilliant care team who not only support our residents, they also love to have fun and enjoy spending time doing things that bring them joy And it wouldn't be a party at Snowdrop Place without our fantastic resident Mike who loves any reason to get dressed up! A freshly prepared supper followed the DJ and plenty of socialising too. Can't wait for the next one- save the date and watch this space!

Birthdays celebrated in style

We love celebrating and sharing special times with our residents, and each individual is important and valued in our home. With Mary's recent birthday celebrations, when asking in preparation of her favourite meal to enjoy, top of the list was a Chinese take away - so that's exactly what we made happen! In our private dining room with friends, good conversation, delicious Chinese food and a glass of fizz the celebrations were definitely enjoyed.

Our Burn's Night celebrations and supper were a great success! The meal of traditional Haggis, neeps and tatties was enjoyed by our residents and entertainment from the wonderful David Pepper.
