Activities at Challoner House Care Home

Our specialist activities staff are committed to organising a mix of activities and events for residents and the local community to get involved in, including trips out to local places of interest in our minibus and visits from entertainers and musicians. It is important to us that each individual who we support can get as much from these as possible, so we try our best to arrange activities that reflect their interests and capabilities as best as possible, and encourage them to participate in any way they can. We also encourage relatives to join with activities and events as often as they can.

We celebrated International Firefighter’s Day  at Challoner with a Fire Safety talk, from our local Firefighters! The talk was informative and interesting, which our residents really enjoyed!

Hot Cross Buns

On good Friday our residents and staff at Challoner House celebrated in the traditional way, we all enjoyed some lovely hot cross buns and a nice cup of tea. Some of our residents tried some different flavour hot cross buns but we all agreed that the traditional ones are the best.
