Activities at Glenroyd Care Home

Here at the Glenroyd our specialist activities staff are committed to organising a mix of activities and events for residents and the local community to get involved in, including trips out to local places of interest in our minibus and visits from entertainers and musicians. Everyone is different and gets pleasure from different things and here at Glenroyd we understand that and therefore try to provide a programme of activity that is tailored to individuals needs. We do this by gathering information and life history work and using that information to feed into our activities schedule. We also encourage relatives to join with activities and events as often as they can.

Agata Prendota

Activities Coordinator

Hi, my name is Agata Prendota and I am the activities coordinator here at Glenroyd. I have worked at Glenroyd since 2014 and in April 2022 transferred to activities. I developed a strong relationship with many of our residents and their families. This has helped me to create a tailored activities program focused on maximizing everyone’s wellbeing, independence, and social engagement.

It is my goal to create a stimulating environment that enables to provide imaginative, fun, and motivational activities that suit every interest and ability. My infectious enthusiasm and creative approach are the key to inspire our residents and staff to get involved in activities both within the home and in the local community.

I am passionate about my role and especially the challenge of coming up with new ways to engage as many residents as possible in daily activities.

Celebrating VE Day

We celebrated the 75th anniversary of victory in Europe, we hosted a garden party with refreshments and light snacks we all had an amazing time enjoying the warm weather and singing along to songs that won the war and we all joined in with the 3pm sing along of we’ll meet again by Vera Lynn.

Sunflower Competition

We have enjoyed the beautiful sunny weather, spending lots of time in the garden listening to music and dancing. Also, each of our residents have planted their own sunflower for our competition. We spend each day looking after them, seeing how they progress.

An Afternoon in the Garden
