Activities at Snowdrop Place Care Home
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.

Lobster with a glass of Rose. A wish come true!
One of our residents, Joan, here at Snowdrop Place had always holidayed in Jersey with her husband and with her family. They married and had children, with son Andrew finally residing on the Island with his wife. While on their holidays it became a family tradition to always have a Lobster meal, be it by the sea or in a fancy restaurant, always followed with an ice cream.
Our activities coordinator Gemma, first found out about Joan's wish when she came across a photo on Facebook of Joan & her son enjoying Lobster & a glass of Rose with a note that read “Mum would love to do this again – Lobster & Rose on the beach in Jersey”.
Joan and her family were delighted at the wonderful surprise! There were tears of joy from everyone. What a special day, we were so glad to be part of this with Joan.
