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.

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.

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.
