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.
Read our brochure 'Life-enriching activities' for more information about life in our care homes.

Life at Woodhorn Park Care Home
Caroling with the Salvation Army
Woodhorn Park residents and staff would like to thank the Salvation Army for visiting us and joining in with our carol service and nativity. It is a blessing for the team to be a part of a magical time of the year, sharing memories, hope and blessings with everyone.
Remembrance Afternoon
Many residents attended a remembrance afternoon that was organised by the local community group Mind Active. A lovely afternoon was had by all who reminisced and shared memories of yesteryear. A beautiful handmade wreath became a focal point within Woodhorn Park during the afternoon.
Children in Need
Residents and staff put on their pyjamas and had a day of fun and games to raise money in support of Children in Need. Housekeeper, Cheryl, and resident, Diane, thought the cakes were lovely. £90 was raised from raffle tickets and games. Well done to everyone involved!
Armistice Day
Both the residents and the team at Woodhorn Park wished to honour Armistice Day and be part of our local community. We decided to decorate our window to celebrate the centenary of the end of the First world War, in addition to remembering all of those who have fallen since that day.
We hope you are proud of our memories like we are.
Halloween Spooktacular
Staff dressed in their Halloween finery for our spooktacular party and residents enjoyed some singing and dancing. A wonderful time was had by all!
10 Years of Service
Well done to Tracy McMillan, who recently received her 10 Year Long Service Award. Thank you for your loyalty and commitment, Tracey, to Woodhorn Park, the residents and your colleagues.
