Activities at Cossins House Care Home
Activities are the cornerstone of a wholesome home experience, and our Activities Coordinators are always putting their creative minds to the test by organising new and exciting social events for residents to partake in. Of course, we take into account the likes and dislikes of those we support, so if someone doesn’t feel like trying something new, there will always be something on offer to reflect their personal interests. For the people who may just prefer some peace and quiet instead, we also offer one-to-one time that can be enjoyed with a nice cup of coffee or just a simple chat – whatever they desire.

Life at Cossins House Care Home
Birthday celebrations at Cossins House.
Our dear Pat had a lovely day celebrating her birthday with residents and staff. Pat loved her flowers and cake and said ‘thank you so much for your kindness, I didn’t expect any of this’.
Christmas at Cossins House
Residents at Cossins House have had a wonderful Christmas with relatives, friends and staff. Christmas gifts were a joy for all. Residents were all delighted with their jumpers, cardigans and tops.
Our celebrations continued throughout December with Carols, Holy Communion, Pantomimes, Parties and much more.
Christmas Time at Cossins House
Residents at Cossins House are enjoying all the Christmas festivities. Holy Communion, live singers, decorations, mince pies and most of all the wonderful children coming in to sing Christmas Carols.
Cinderella
A great start to the Christmas period with a wonderful performance from Rah Rah Theatre who came to Cossins House to perform Cinderella. The afternoon was very amusing and the room was lit up with laughter and smiles. Residents took part in dancing and joined in with the songs. We look forward to our next show.
Indoor Fun and Games
During the cold weather we spend time together playing games such as solitaire, jenga, and making use of our new library which residents wished for.
A trip to see the Christmas Decorations
Residents at Cossins House had a lovely trip out to the garden centre to look at the Christmas Decorations. We had a lovely afternoon deciding on our decorations for this year followed by tea and cake.
