Activities at Station Court 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 make up the most important part of all our days, and at Station Court we ensure there are a variety of social events that reflect the individual interests and capabilities of people we support. All group and individual activities are designed to not only mentally and physically stimulate the people we care for, but to enhance their life skills and feelings of purpose and self worth. All of our team are committed to supporting a full activities programme within the home.

Life at Station Court Care Home


Lights, Camera, Action
Residents, staff and family members at Station Court had a fabulous time with the travelling theatre company performing their feel-good musical show ‘There’s no business like show business’ from the comfort of the care homes lounge, making it accessible for all.
Following the story of aspiring show girls Dotty and Peggy. Full of comedy and feel-good songs such as
Tomorrow, Spoon full of sugar and all that jazz having everyone connecting and singing along to the show. The show evoked many positive memories for residents, reminiscing of visits to the theatre and reminiscing of bygone days, first dates and trips with friends.


Mother's Day!
Ladies at Station Court care home have a perfect day of relaxation, pampering, love and appreciation, celebrating a day all about them.
Staff members hosted an extra-special Mother’s Day high tea afternoon with family members joining for scrumptious sweet and savoury delights and the bubbly flowing to toast to all our wonderful mothers.
After a morning of pamper sessions, flower arranging, family visits and lots of beautiful flower deliveries!
Happy Mother’s Day to all. We hope everyone had a day as special as they are.
