Activities at Woodhorn Park Care Home
Activities make up the most important part of all our days at Woodhorn park, so we ensure a variety of social events are available that reflect the interests of all the people we support. In our Memory Lane community, we have group conversations and regularly reminiscence about past experiences, which is something that people living with dementia really enjoy. Many residents love gardening, baking, outings, pet care and gentle exercise, which we provide, along with many other wholesome activities, as it is essential that life at Woodhorn Park is fun and active.

Life at Woodhorn Park Care Home
World Chocolate Day
Residents enjoyed tasting different varieties of chocolate, strawberries and marshmallows, all dipped in our chocolate fountain. Milk chocolate was voted everyone’s favourite!
Friendship Day
Residents and loved ones came together to enjoy Friendship Day. Prior to the ‘big day’, residents made a bracelet each to give to their friend of choice on the day. We had a lovely time singing and dancing during the afternoon.
Armed Forces Day
Armed Forces Day is an important date on our calendar at Woodhorn Park. Many of the residents participated in service to our country and we honour them in addition to our current armed forces personnel.
Local Fusilier Mark Hyman visited and presented medals to our residents chatting about past and current forces life.
