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!

Life at Hyacinth House Care Home
A great day at the Allendale Market
We were delighted to be at the Allendale Centre today for the Market!
Our Home Services Advisor Jane, was situated in the Quarter Jack Hall from 8am-2pm. An enjoyable day meeting members of the community that were curious to know about Hyacinth House. It was a joy to chat to those that approached our stand, she will be there 13th Oct too. Please look out for her and say hello!
Our dedicated flower arranger!
Meet Eveline, she has a passion for flowers and a talent for arranging blooms. We recently put her skills to the test and she shared with us her wealth of experience and knowledge. We enjoyed hearing her reminisce about her history of creating beautiful floral arrangements with friends for the church and even mastered the delicate art of ikebana.
Her eye for colour and vibrant spirit add a touch of elegance to our surroundings. We were so impressed she is now our cherished and dedicated flower arranger!
World's biggest coffee morning for Macmillan.
We took part and enjoyed a delicious selection of cake and coffee, courtesy of our talented Chef!
Thank you to those that stopped by to support the morning.
