Activities at Juniper House Care Home
Our teams are trained to enrich the lives of residents through stimulating the mind, body and soul, and taking the time to learn about each person to ensure everyone receives support that adds enrichment to their life.
Activities are the cornerstone of a wholesome home experience and our Activities Coordinators are always putting their creative minds to the test by organising new and exciting social events for residents to partake in. Of course, we take into account the likes and dislikes of those we support, so if someone doesn’t feel like trying something new, there will always be something on offer to reflect their personal interests. For the people who may just prefer some peace and quiet instead, we also offer one-to-one time that can be enjoyed with a nice cup of coffee or just a simple chat – whatever they desire.
Activities and Events Partnerships
As part of our bespoke life-enrichment programmes, we host a number of live virtual events in the home on a regular basis through a number of partnerships with places of interest and world class performance companies
Life at Juniper House Care Home
Wimbledon Garden Party
We all gathered outside for a Wimbledon themed garden party, Everyone had a glass of the classic Wimbledon drink, Pimms and of course strawberries and cream was served. There was live entertainment by Steve Carmel meaning lots of singing and dancing.
A visit from the local school
Intergenerational fun here at Juniper House with students from a local school.
The children walked up from the local school in the morning and then a different class in the afternoon. It was a day full of poetry, songs, laughter and of course lots of smiles!
We love keeping in contact with our local community and can’t wait to welcome the primary school students back again.
Juniper House Sports Day
This Year we held our very first sports day. The Day consisted of multiple competitions for staff, residents and visitors. There was lots going on for all, including; a 3-legged race, egg and spoon races, bowls, target practice and a push-up challenge!
Lots of medals were won and memories made.
We are going to make it an annual special event as it was enjoyed by all.
The King’s Coronation Celebration
Of course a big event in the month of May was the Kings coronation. We partied like royalty, with union jacks as far as the eye could see. With drinks, food, music and even a treat tombola. A big thank you to all friends, family and staff who came along to make the day special.
Brackley Medical Centre and Community Hospital Grand Opening
This month we headed out into the community in our mini bus to our local medical centres opening day. This is where our GP’s are based. It was lovely to see so many in the community and a chance to view the new premises.
Gardening Club
Our gardening club have been busy here at Juniper House. We planted some sunflower seeds a little while back, this month we brought them out of the greenhouse an re-potted them into some plant pots. You will see the sunflowers around the home. We can’t wait for them to flower!
