Activities
Vibrant Day Services
We offer separate day services in each of our two lounges. We recognise that not every resident benefits from activities for sustained periods of time or in larger groups. Therefore, we schedule these kinds of activities in our South Lounge, whilst concurrently providing shorter, more sensory and therapeutic activities in the North Lounge. This means that every one of our residents can benefit from stimulating activities.

South Lounge Programme
We offer four main group activities every day – two in the morning and two in the afternoon – in the South Lounge, so that residents can choose the hobbies or entertainment that most excite them. We also give all residents the opportunity to engage in discussion about the day’s current affairs during the daily coffee morning.
North Lounge Programme
Our North Lounge activities are structured slightly differently. For residents that benefit from shorter activities in smaller groups, we schedule eight sensory and relaxing activities which each take no longer than half an hour.
