Activities at Caldy Manor Care Home
Our teams are trained to enrich the lives of residents through stimulating the mind, body and soul, and taking the time to learn about each person to ensure everyone receives support that adds enrichment to their life. We encourage those we support to continue with any hobbies whilst they stay at home. We also hold group activities, such as exercise to music, sing-alongs, craft sessions and visits to local places of interest. There are also evening events, including cheese & wine evenings and race nights. We keep families up-to-date through our newsletter and notices that can be found across the home. Family and friends are always welcome to join in!

Life at Caldy Manor Care Home
Croquet
This activity was suggested when we went out to our local pub. Whilst the weather was nice, we decided to try something new. We got out some garden games that most are familiar with, but also tried croquet, which was a first for some.
We all had a lovely time working out the game and enjoying some light refreshments throughout the afternoon.
VE Day celebrations
We had such a wonderful time celebrating VE DAY. We started the week off with a singer, singing some good old classic war songs.
The next day, we had a VE day quiz, then we finished the celebrations off with afternoon tea and watching the service and thinking about all those who contributed during those times.
Trip to the local pub
We went out in the afternoon whilst the sun was shining to watch the cricket on the big screen at our local pub. We enjoyed our drinks whilst discussing what activities we would like to do next.
We all came up with some great ideas for other trips out of some new ones we haven’t tried yet.
Hadlow Train Station
Live Cheshire Bikes
This was such a wonderful experience for our residents. We went to Chester to use some adapted bikes for all disabilities, and it was absolutely fantastic.
Seeing the residents’s faces light up as we rode around the park and listening to their stories of when they used to cycle everywhere was so magical. This is something that would benefit your mind, body and soul.
History Talk
Ken Pye came and delivered a fascinating talk about the Wirral. He told us stories that were not really heard of, but he showed us newspaper articles to show they really happened.
It was such a wonderful afternoon as talks are one of our favourite things here at Caldy as we love learning something new.
