Activities at Four Hills Care Home
Our activity and lifestyle programme is arranged for all our residents to participate in and is updated regularly based on ideas from our residents group during our resident forum. Our Resident of the Day strategy ensures each person receives at least one day each month where the focus is all about them.
We have a monthly concert and to date this is appreciated and enjoyed by most residents. The Four Hills Taverns is open for business every Friday afternoon and is an area where residents and staff socialise, hold pub quizzes and partake in a little refreshment.
The team at Four Hills try hard to meet everyone's needs and encourage all residents and their families to join in the fun.

Life at Four Hills Care Home
London Ladies
As part of our International Women’s Day celebrations, Residents from across our services were thrilled to join tour guide, Mandy Morrow, for an exciting talk about some Legendary London Ladies.
Mandy shared the fascinating stories of eight ladies with us, from the one of the richest heiresses in the world to the original 'Roaring Girl'.
Everyone who participated truly enjoyed the experience and were delighted to take a walk down memory lane.
Bingo Bonanza
Across the country our homes and hospitals came together to find out which care home or hospital had the best Bingo players as we teamed up for Barchester’s Bingo Bonanza.
Residents were treated to some exciting virtual games of Bingo as part of Barchester’ very own game show series.
Everyone who participate had a fantastic time and enjoyed some friendly competition.
Valentine's Day
Love was in the air at Fourhills this month, the whole home was decorated with hearts and flowers, on the day itself Fourhills hosted an afternoon tea for residents, their significant others and family members to join us, we all enjoyed getting tucked into all the delicious baking the residents had made for it. Then in the evening our head chef Paul pulled out all the stops and created a delicious romantic 3 course meal for our couples who live here together, we set the mood by decorating the room, having romantic music playing all washed down with a few glasses of bubbles.
Chinese New Year
Resident at Fourhills celebrating Chinese New Year and the year of ‘The Dragon’, we marked the day by decorating the home with traditional Chinese decorations, on the day itself we had a quiz themed around the history of China, we used You-Tube to take a stroll around the markets of China and saw all the fantastic light shows. Then in the evening our chef made a delicious Chinese themed meal which lots of the residents really enjoyed.
Wish You Were Here
This month at Fourhills we were treated to fantastic play from our visiting theatre group called ‘ Wish You Were Here’ telling the story of a Glasgow family going their annual holidays to Blackpool.
The show involved lots of comedy and our residents were splitting their sides with laughter. There was also lots of singing of some of our favourite Scottish songs. The residents would all love to see another one of the shows so we have one pre-booked for April to look forward to.
