Activities at Falmouth Court Care Home
We understand that the people we support have passions and interests that could be difficult to pursue after moving into a care home – but that doesn’t mean we don’t encourage them to try! Some hobbies can define a person, so our Activities Coordinators are dedicated to ensuring that everyone we support is able to do what makes them happy to the best of their abilities. Social events are organised with individual tastes in mind and with the idea that residents have the opportunity to try new and exciting things.

I have moved to Falmouth from Kent where I was already in place at another Barchester home as the Activities Coordinator. I love providing our residents with fulfilling activities and my specialty is arts and crafts. I have a degree in Fine Arts and achieved a first in the subject. I strive to provide our residents with a varied range of life enriching activities. I like to get to know each residents and their interests to I can tailor activities to individuals interests and hobbies.

Musical Trip to Truro Cathedral
Our residents had a lovely trip to Truro Cathedral to see the Truro, Newquay & Falmouth "Good Afternoon Choirs" perform.
The Good afternoon Choirs are a social group that have their afternoons free to sing and have fun and even raise money for local charities.
What a wonderful treat for everyone in the most stunning location.

BT Companions!
BT Companions!
This week the team from the BT Truro call centre came along to meet out residents. The team provide a befriending service to our residents via the telephone. Each week one of the team gives the home a call on a mobile they have provided and spends half an hour chatting with one of our residents.
We have been trialing the scheme for a few weeks and it was really lovely for both our residents and the group to meet in person to build those links further.
