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.

Christmas Tree Festival

On the first weekend of December, we invited some of our residents from our Memory Lane community to take part in the annual Christmas Tree Festival at the local St James Church, West End. The task of decoration placement was dealt with beautifully by Ann and Hilary, along with our activities team. The trees are then on display for all the local community to enjoy, before we bring our tree back for pride of place at Snowdrop Place throughout the rest of December. An absolutely delightful afternoon.

They went on a deep sea diving experience, a trip into space and for those looking for a little more exciting a ride on a roller a coaster. The students also brought in the laptops and showed the residents how AI worked. We really embrace how we can invite the community into our home, and how inter generational technology can be
