Activities at Caldy Manor Care Home
Our Activities Coordinators work together to provide daily activities suited to the tastes of residents. 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
65th Wedding Anniversary
Brian & Frieda Jenkins recently celebrated their 65th wedding anniversary at Caldy Manor Care Home where Frieda is a resident. The couple were presented with flowers and champagne from staff and residents who helped them celebrate their special day.
Frieda said, ‘We had a wonderful day and we didn’t expect all the fuss but we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves’. The couple also enjoyed a meal out together with family. Frieda has recently moved into Caldy Manor and is enjoying activities and being pampered.
Afternoon Cocktails
Residents had a lovely afternoon sampling cocktails created by staff members. One of our residents, Irene, just moved in and is enjoying her new friends, and our fun activities.
Balloon Tennis Tournament
Residents took to the tennis court for a competitive match. Norman and Edith reached the final! After a hard fought game and much laughter, they decided to call it a draw. All players then enjoyed a well-earned rest and strawberries topped with cream.

Sunflower Planting
Residents look forward to seeing the children from Avalon School again. The children are getting to know our residents as they have visited several times. Bringing the generations together is beneficial to all involved. We planted seeds, sang songs together as resident, Ron, played his harmonica and enjoyed a snack together before the children returned to school. We have several more activities with Avalon School planned for the next term.
Carers Week
Caldy Manor held a day of celebrations and gifts to thank the care staff of the home. They make a real difference to the lives of those in their care. Staff celebrated with residents, making beautiful hand-made cards and presented them to staff members who joined them for afternoon tea and a slice of delicious home-made cake. Everyone had an amazing time.
