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!

Don't Dine Alone, every Thursday.

We had the most delightful lunch Thursday, bringing our wonderful community members together for a three course meal to combat loneliness and it's on us! 

Our Head Chef prepared delicious menu options including Butternut Squash & Red Lentil Soup with a Homemade Bread Roll, Braised pork steak with caramelised apple or Grilled Salmon with a creamy parsley sauce and to finish off with a melt in the mouth Eton Mess or Fresh Berries and Pomegranate Fruit Salad.

We surprised one lovely couple with a card and bouquet of flowers after we found out they will be celebrating their 68th Anniversary next week. When asked their secret, they said "Just love each other" Many congratulations! 

It's heartwarming to see how food can bring us all closer together in the fight to combat loneliness. If you would like to join us or know someone that would benefit from great company and conversation and a delicious meal please get in touch, booking is essential.

A great start to the day!

We want to express our sincere gratitude to Wimborne Minster Chamber of Trade & Commerce for allowing us to host their September Networking breakfast this morning. 

Thank you to all the wonderful members that joined us for an enjoyable morning of sharing insights, great conversations and growing connections.
