Activities at Bluebell Park Care Home
Here at Bluebell Park our aim is to enrich the lives of our residents, through group, and individual activities.
We have a wide range of activities designed to mentally, and physically stimulate the people we care for, including regular trips out in the mini bus, and taking part in the community led events that happen in the village we live in. We hold monthly resident meetings so our planning reflects their wishes, and requests, for example we now hold a regular bingo club (which residents families love to attend) and a bowling afternoon which the gentlemen here particularly enjoy. Entertainers and musicians regularly come into the home and families and friends are always welcome to attend too.
Activities are one of the most important aspects of our care home, and we strive to have a full range on offer. Our team here at Bluebell are dedicated to ensuring our residents enjoy, and get as much out of our entertainment as possible. It is without a doubt our mission is to make sure that life at Bluebell is active, fun, and most of all happy.

Life at Bluebell Park Care Home
Winter Walks and a visit to a Coffee Shop
Residents have enjoyed a lovely morning getting out and about. We went for a Winter walk down the Canal path to Swarkestone Lock. Followed by a trip to the Local Coffee Shop were the residents indulged with a Hot Chocolate. What a lovely way to spend a winter's morning.
International Flower Day
Here at Bluebell Park, Residents from all floors have taken part in flower arranging activities. Residents have had lots of fun being creative, and it's lovely to have fresh flowers around our home.
Afternoon Concert with Richard Comfort
We had an afternoon concert with Richard Comfort, who sang us a selection of songs. Some residents took the opportunity to indulge with a glass of Wine. Overall it was an afternoon enjoyed by all.
Starlings virtual talk
Across our services our residents have enjoyed a wonderful live virtual talk about starlings, one of the UK’s most gregarious birds, hosted by Rachel Dowse from The Royal Parks London.
Rachel examined our long history with this bird and the importance of common species to our lives. Our residents had the opportunity to find out more about the great murmuration and why we need to pay special attention to these beauties before it's too late.
The virtual experience was truly enjoyed by all.
Virtual trip to the Donkey Sanctuary
Across our services, Residents enjoyed a fantastic virtual tour of the Donkey Sanctuary Manchester. Residents were thrilled to meet the lovely herd of donkeys, including Henry and his best friend Tiny Tim and to learn more about their every day care. They were introduced to the sanctuary’s work and the impact they make to the lives of donkeys in need worldwide. The virtual experience was truly enjoyed by all.
An Afternoon Baking
Some of the residents spent the afternoon Baking a Victoria Sponge Cake.
