Activities at Awel-Y-Mor Care Home
Activities are an integral part of life at our care home. We want to ensure that the people we support have as much fun as possible during their time with us, so it’s important that our activities programme is created with the interests of residents in mind. Our skilled Activities Coordinators bring a certain uniqueness to the home that can’t be found anywhere else, and which is reflected in the activities they organise.
Jo & Julie
Awel-Y-Mor's activities team consists of three Activities Coordinators, each having a specialist unique role within the group, including work in the multi-sensory concept, as well as organising days out, trips to sporting events and pop concerts, and arranging themed days. Jo has been with us for over ten years, beginning her Barchester career as a Carer, and Julie joined us in 2018.

World Chocolate Day
On World Chocolate Day we all had fun talking about various chocolates and what we liked and didn’t from the memory board, and to top it off the chocolate fountain was a great success.
Wimbledon Afternoon
Residents enjoyed watching the tennis in the dining room, the strawberries and cream didn’t last long though!
Jubilee Jigsaw
Our Jubilee Jigsaw still not quite finished, but residents still having fun.
Relaxing in the Sunshine
Residents having a relaxing time enjoying the sunshine in the garden.
Baking Scones
A resident was busy making scones for Ladies Day Afternoon Tea to enjoy, while watching the Royal Ascot.
Jubilee Celebrations
Residents had fun all week with the Jubilee Celebrations, starting off with the decorations to make the home look festive. On the Thursday we held our Jubilee Big Lunch where all the residents and staff enjoyed the buffet from fresh meats, pasta, pizzas, etc. to our Jubilee Pudding and Crown Cake, a lovely party atmosphere. In the afternoon we had a good sing song with Jimmy ‘Elvis’ entertainer, it was full of enjoyment and excitement. The residents loved watching the coverage of the Jubilee on the T.V.
