Activities at Bloomfield Care Centre
We host a wide range of activities and events here for residents to stimulate them both physically and mentally. Relatives can often be found taking part; for example, they will some times join us on minibus trips and to enjoy entertainers and musical events. There is regular involvement from the local community, with ministers holding services for us weekly, visits from our PAT dog, and a good volunteer network. Additionally, we have recently opened a Dementia Café, which is held on the fourth Tuesday of every month. Activities are an essential part of residents' lives, so we strive to keep them active with a focus on what they can achieve and that life here is fun.
Cathy Jallow
Hello, My name is Cathy and I am the Activities Coordinator at Bloomfield care centre.
I joined the team here at Bloomfield in August 2017 as carer and have since moved into Activities.
The Activities role is varied and one which allows me to plan amazing activities for our residents to ensure their days are filled with lots of fun, laughter and social interaction.
I am always looking for new activity ideas as well as new places to visit, so please give me a call to discuss our life enrichment programme further.

Life at Bloomfield Care Centre
Carers Week
We wanted to say a huge thank you to our dedicated Carers, who are devoted to looking after those we support. Our General Manager presented the team with sweet treats and said a special thank you to the whole team!
Golden Toes
We were lucky enough to have 'Golden Toes' join us on our open day. They sing and dance and we were able to make the most of the sunshine in our gardens. A great afternoon was had by all!
Sperring Court Animal Rescue
Staff from Sperring Court Animal Rescue frequently visit Bloomfield and, recently we had an afternoon with our furry flying friends, including this beautiful owl!
Micky Comes to Entertain
Resident, Vera, enjoyed a dance when Micky, one our favourite entertainers, put on a performance. Micky has a great way of getting everyone up on their feet.
Magnificent Easter Cake
Our Head Chef, Amanda Hughes, made this absolutely magnificent Easter cake for the residents. The cake has been entered into the Barchester Easter Cake Competition, so we all have our fingers crossed that we have won. Well done and thank you Amanda for how hard you worked to create this beauty!
