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.

Carers Week
For Carers Week, the carers and staff from Awel-Y-Mor loved sweetie day and an afternoon of fruit and a chocolate fountain, which tasted yummy!
Beach Party
The staff and residents from Awel-Y-Mor enjoyed our beach-themed party. The sun decided not to shine outside, but there was a lot of sunshine inside! Residents dressed up in their brightest T-shirts and enjoyed their cocktails and BBQ whilst listening to happy holiday music.
