Activities at Caldy Manor Care Home

We are blessed to be able to have Holy Communion here at Caldy and for it to be delivered by Reverend Alex from St Bridget’s Church. We have this once a month and is very important to our residents to be able to carry on with their faith and for us to be able to support this.

Mums and babies have been visiting us once a month for the last few months and its going absolutely fantastic. Residents and mums are forming a lovely bond and enjoy meeting each month to catch up and have a little chat. Residents can see babies growing and this is one of our favourite activities.

Staff and residents from Barchester’s Caldy Manor care home, in Wirral had a fantastic time visiting Llandudno, North Wales where they all enjoyed driving up the Great Orme.

Residents and staff had a brilliant day starting with the lovely drive along the A55 and reminiscing about the times they had with their families, going on holidays in North Wales. Once they arrived at Llandudno, they started the ascent up the Great Orme which had some spectacular views. At the top they enjoyed a fabulous picnic that activities staff and head chef had prepared, along with picnic tables and camping chairs.

We had another visit from St Bridget’s baby group and residents here at Caldy look forward to them visiting each month. One resident said “It’s so nice to see them every month watching them develop and becoming their own little person” We had a lovely surprise, due to the school holidays they bought their siblings with them so the room was filled with joy and laughter playing games and singing songs.

Residents enjoyed an afternoon of eating sweets. A trolley was all set out with all different variety of sweets and was taken round all the residents so they could help themselves to do a little pick and mix bag of sweets for themselves. It was lovely listening to all their stories of when they were children going to the shop and getting their sweets and how much times have changed in sweets and price.

Residents at Caldy Manor went  out for the afternoon to port Sunlight for a picnic in the minibus. The residents had a wonderful time looking at all the flowers and watching children play on the grass. One resident said “ I didn’t realise how much history there was here. It’s so nice to see how well it has been looked after.” After the picnic we went to Eastham Ferry to watch planes take off and land from Speke airport whilst enjoying an ice cream.
