Activities at Spen Court 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.

Angela Blackburn

Head of Activities

My name is Angela and I am the Head Activities Coordinator here at Spen Court. I get so much satisfaction out of knowing I have made a difference to people’s days and have filled the home with a sense of community and happiness.

We feel it is important to build community connections and maintain our resident’s social interaction outside the care home.

We ensure we deliver a person-centered program of events and activities and build strong relationships with our residents, their families and friends.

Spreading the Positivi-tea

Spen Court celebrated the Queen’s birthday in style, whilst also brewing up a storm for National Tea Day on the 21st April with a virtual tea party! Our kitchen team supplied everyone with a tasty selection of biscuits, cakes and, of course, teas for the event. Residents also had lots of fun taking part in an array of fun-filled activities throughout the day, enjoying a singalong to music, taking part in games and getting some well needed vitamin D in our beautiful gardens.
