Activities at Fordmill 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.

Julia Constandache

Senior Activities Coordinator

I’m Julia and I have been working at Fordmill since December 2016. I really enjoy art and studied Graphic Design & Illustration in Dundee. I love being with people and using my skills to improve their quality of life and bring a smile to their faces through crafts, games and all sorts of other activities.

I plan out the activities, either for groups or individuals, according to specific needs and interests. It’s a real joy to get to know residents and their loved ones and I’m grateful to Barchester for giving me the opportunity to work with them and bring some sunshine into the residents’ lives.

It was 'Wear a Wig to Work Day' for Clic Sargent and Fordmill raised £30 for the charity. It was a fun and rewarding day for everyone involved!

International Nurses' Day at Fordmill

To say thank you for the incredible work that our nurses do at Fordmill, we gifted them with some special travel mugs for International Nurses' Day.

Football Memories by Links Park Community Trust

This is a resident speaking to a local player about some of the best footballers of their eras. We are planning to take a few of the men down to Links Park to see Montrose's football pitch and go around the changing rooms.

Links Community Trust Dream Team

One of the representatives from Links Community Trust stopped by to show the men 2 cards of players; he compiled their 'dream team' based on the cards they selected. This activity was a real big hit with the men.
