Activities at Waterside 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.
We understand that the people we support have passions and interests that could be difficult to pursue after moving into a care home – but that doesn’t mean we don’t encourage them to try! Some hobbies can define a person, so our Activities Coordinators are dedicated to ensuring that everyone we support is able to do what makes them happy to the best of their abilities. Social events are organised with individual tastes in mind and with the idea that residents have the opportunity to try new and exciting things.
Activities and Events Partnerships
As part of our bespoke life-enrichment programmes, we host a number of live virtual events in the home on a regular basis through a number of partnerships with places of interest and world class performance companies
Life at Waterside Court Care Home
Armchair Dancing!
"What an amazing Armchair Dance session we had here at Waterside Court today!"
Everybody enjoyed singing along and dancing with passion. Not only did we have fun, but the session also aimed at boosting our residents' mobility, improving coordination, and lifting everyone's spirits.
Such a beautiful way to stay active, have fun, and create lasting memories together.
Elvis in the Building
We had Elvis in the building at Waterside Court as we celebrated the Birthday of 'The King of Rock 'n' Roll' with a special Elvis tribute by Cody.
Residents were celebrating in style by dancing to Elvis' classic tunes.
Thank you to Cody for the fantastic performance and the joy you brought to everyone!!
Storytelling
Today, here at Waterside Court, we journeyed back in time with the story of the Three Wise Men and their visit to "Baby Jesus."
To bring the story to life, we got creative by making our own crowns to celebrate the kingship of Jesus.
The residents enjoyed crafting together, adding glitter and colourful decorations to their crowns, just like the wise men would have. It was a wonderful time of reflection, creativity and community get-together.
Christmas Carol Performance
It's definitely beginning to look a lot like Christmas here at Waterside Court.
We had an amazing performance by Goring and Streatley Concert Band, Clarinet Ensemble this week.
The band played Christmas carols, and what a festive atmosphere with the rich, melodic sound of the clarinets blending beautifully with the familiar tunes of holiday classics.
Thank you to everyone for being part of this event and how incredible and special it was for everyone who was present.
Christmas Jumper Day!
Today was 'Christmas Jumper Day' and here at Waterside Court we always want to pose.
So our models were at it again, this time competing for the title of 'Best Christmas Jumper.'
Our residents were the judges as usual, but some decided to compete for the title and modelled for the very enthusiastic audience.
It was a great afternoon and we were joined in by relatives and friends who were also dressed to impress.
Christmas Tree Festival
Today we were delighted to visit to St Helen's Church Christmas Tree Festival.
What a unique and beautiful experience we all had seeing the creativity by local community groups who made and decorated such designs.
Thank you so much St Helen’s Church for inviting us and making us part of this great festival. So much hard work and effort went into bringing this altogether, and creating such a wonderful festival.
Residents were pleased by the warm welcome and joy everyone gave to them. Our visit was topped off with a cuppa and tasty treats that were so delicious.
The magic of Christmas was truly felt by All!!
