Activities at Hyacinth House Care Home

Our home is always full of life, and we can thank our wonderful Activities Coordinators for this. Dedication to creating a unique and interesting activities programme is what sets us apart from other homes. We always take into consideration that some people would prefer to pursue their own interests, which is why our team strive to incorporative activities that cater to a wide range of tastes and hobbies. Our trips out are always fun and exciting as well, and residents are guaranteed to return with stories to tell their loved ones!

Activities Coordinator

I am a friendly and enthusiastic Activity Coordinator with a passion for working with people and making a positive impact in their lives. I joined Hyacinth House in 2024 as a carer and excited to now be the Activities Coordinator. I have eight years experience in hospitality and three years in floristry. I bring creativity, strong interpersonal skills and a warm welcoming approach to my role. My background has given me the ability to connect with individuals, organise engaging activities, and create meaningful experiences that brighten people’s days. I love inspiring others, fostering a sense of community and bringing joy through thoughtful and inclusive activities.

A trip down Memory Lane....

and around the South West Coast Path.

On a warm and sunny July afternoon, we took a little break from the heat and stepped into the cool charm of the Tivoli Theatre in Wimborne. This magical place feels like time has stood still with its classic interior and warm atmosphere.

We watched “The Salt Path”, a beautiful and touching film based on a true story.

It was a wonderful escape, full of reflection, resilience, and inspiration. A story that will stay with us until our next outing.

Summer Beach Days

What a perfect summer’s day to spent at a beautiful Southbourne Beach, and we even walked all the way down and back up again.

The sky was blue, the sun was shining, and the sea, a stunning lazurite blue with waves practically waving back at us.

We enjoyed a fresh sea breeze something our residents dearly missed and appreciated.
