Activities at Cherry Trees Care Home
Our activities team are constantly striving to mentally and physically stimulate those we support by organising group and individual social events for anyone and everyone to participate in. There are regular outings in the minibus to nearby places of interest, including the local theatre, as well as visits from Pat dogs, musicians and entertainers. We also host bingo, quiz and knitter natter afternoons that we encourage relatives and the local community to attend. Our Gentleman's Club is also open to non-residents every Thursday afternoon from 2:30pm, join us for a tipple of your choice, we have plenty of snacks and chats. For the ladies, our beauty salon provides; hairdressing and nail pampering, you too can enjoy a drink and some well-deserved 'me' time. Activities are one of the most important aspects of a care home, so it is essential that our team are dedicated to ensuring that residents are entertained, and that life at Cherry Trees is fun and active.

Getting Creative
Once again, we had so much fun in Claire's arts & crafts session. As it was Halloween, we painted some spooky spiders to commemorate the occasion
Halloween
We had so much fun at Halloween, carving pumpkins into spooky faces and listening to scary songs. Residents also had a Halloween party in the evening, with a spooky buffet made by our chef.

It’s always lovely to see residents spending time with their loved ones; Eileen and her daughter enjoyed listening to Barry, one of our entertainers, together.
