CHAT & CRAFT
During their weekly sessions, residents enjoy knitting, making greetings cards, decorations, etc. For those residents who are unable to take part in the crafts, there is plenty of chat.

ART
Regular art lessons/ sessions are available for residents who have an interest in art, or who would like to learn. We have a resident Art Therapist John Reid who operates from designated art studio.

OTHER ACTIVITIES

Weekly movement sessions are held in each care unit to assist residents in maintaining their mobility.

Snoezelan is a form of therapy and the supervised sessions are available to residents in our specially equipped room.

Other activities include music sessions, poetry reading and favourite hymn singing.

Day trips are organised by various groups and individuals, with bar-b-ques, tea parties and outings are held at the Home during the Summer months.

Carol singing and seasonal decorating at Christmas time are annual events.
