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.
Blerta Cesula
Hi, my name is Blerta. I am the Activities Coordinator here at Waterside Court. I joined the team in February 2024.
I absolutely love my role, and I'm passionate about creating meaningful experiences that enrich the lives of our residents.
Every day is different, and our life enrichment program brings out my creative side, which I share with everyone.
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
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!!
What a fabulous way to start off the festive period
Cody joined us this morning for his Christmas Spectacular Show on Elf Day!
The performance was filled with all our favourite Christmas songs, dancing and a fun, interactive story telling which got all the residents involved and participating.
Our residents had an absolute great time, joining in singing along to well-known Christmas songs.
It wouldn't be Christmas without Disney
This week we had a Disney Day with a brilliant music performance by the favourite duo King & Rackham.
They played Disney themed Christmas songs and our staff where dressed for the occasion.
Everyone had a great time and it surly brought back lots of memories.
Lest we Forget
Today residents at Waterside Court shared very touching stories and memories as we remember the servicemen and women who sacrificed their lives in conflict, especially during the First and Second World Wars.
On this very important day in our calendar everybody reflected on their war experiences.
It was a very sombre occasion for everyone present as residents showed pictures and items from the war expressing what this meant to them. "Lest we forget"
Halloween Party at Waterside
We had a fantastic Halloween Costume Competition which brought a lot of fun with our residents judging the competition. Our team members pulled all the stops to win.
To top the day, we also celebrated a 'Halloween Birthday' for Kitty. Happy Birthday Kitty and we all wish you many more.
