Our Activities Coordinator is constantly arranging new activities to stimulate and catch the imagination of our residents. From visiting entertainers to a regular craft table to outings on the minibus, there is always something for our residents to keep them entertained. Our Activities Coordinator also takes the time to sit with each resident and go through a life history so they get to know what the likes and dislikes of each individual are and can tailor the activities to suit them. A monthly residents meeting is held to get the views of the residents and to get suggestions from them and their families about what they would like to do and everything that can be done to accommodate their requests is done.
Residents from Appletree Grange recently performed at the Sage in Gateshead over Easter as part of the Gateshead Choir, which is made up of care home residents and carers throughout the district. The singers have been preparing for the big performance since October last year, and it was a huge success.
