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
Daffodil Donations
The team at Woodhorn Park would like to say a a big thank you to Asda in Ashington for their wonderful donation of spring daffodils for Mother’s Day. Woodhorn Park was lit up with smiles on Sunday; it was a beautiful gesture and very much appreciated by all.
Comic Relief
The cast of Woodhorn Park hosted a 1970s-themed danceathon in aid of Comic Relief. Residents, visitors and the team enjoyed dancing to Abba dressed in clothing from a fantastic era. In total, we managed to raise £65.50.
Ladies Day
Dorothy and Audrey can be seen above preparing for Ladies Day at Cheltenham. Dorothy, who used to be a scout leader, stood up to the cause and helped others to make their own personal hats and quite remarkable fascinators.
Afterwards, we watched the races with some lovely refreshments on the side.
Comic Relief Donation
We would like to thank Graeme Robinson, Store Manager, at Sainsbury's in Morpeth, for donating red noses and deely bobbers to sell in support of Comic Relief. We look forward to working alongside you in the future.
The Woodhorn Oscars
Discreetly living within the community, Woodhorn Park is the home of the 'superstars', therefore, in recognition of their achievements, an Oscars celebration was held for both the team and residents.
Everyone had a wonderful time celebrating!
Valentine's Meal
A couple of residents treated their wives to a three course Valentine’s meal at Woodhorn Park. There were cards, roses and even some cheeky kisses.
