Activities at Latimer Court 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.
Here at Latimer Court, we have a varied social programme that includes themed events once a month, painting classes, day trips out, exercise classes and arts & crafts, to name but a few. We strive to tailor our activities to suit everyone's needs, and update our notice boards weekly so that all families and visitors can see what their loved ones have been up to. Our aim is to make sure that those we support can enjoy a happy and fulfilled stay with us.
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 Latimer Court Care Home
Dunelm gifts!
At Christmas, we had the support of Dunelm and the community. Dunelm had a Christmas Tree in store and had cards for each resident on the tree for the community to purchase Christmas presents, which was greatly received by our residents.
In January and February, we did planned visits with residents back to Dunelm to say thank you to the staff, and we went into the café and had hot drinks and cakes and spoke to people in the café who were visiting on the day. We also had a look around the store and spoke to staff.
We bought a free-standing clock that the residents wanted in one of the lounges and household items for the residents to use on our Memory Lane units.
Garden Walks
Residents managed to go outside on Saturday 22nd Feb for a morning in the fresh air to walk around, have a look at the garden and discuss what new flowers and seeds we could look at planting in our lovely area where we spend time in the spring and summer tending to the plants we buy and plant in our lovely garden.
Already some of our residents' families have brought in seeds for us to plant.
Chinese New Year!
We had a themed event for Chinese New Year on the 29th Jan and the residents had a fab time tasting Chinese food and listening to Chinese oriental music and all had a laugh enjoying social time together hearing lots of facts to do with Chinese culture.
We had visitors join us on the day who had stayed with us previously in the home.
Flower Arranging
A Winter stroll around our gardens!
Sometimes you just can't beat getting out and about in the fresh air, especially on those chilly Winter mornings! A few of our residents got out and about this week, making sure they bundled up to battle the chill and go for a wander around our gardens.
There were lots of chats & giggles as we went, and we were even able to take a look at our raised flower beds and make some plans for Spring and Summer. What flowers would you plant in our beds and gardens? Let us know!
Christmas Presents!
The 3rd Warndon Rainbows and the 4th Warndon Brownies with Chloe who runs the groups have dropped off all the Christmas presents today for the residents.
We would like to say a huge thankyou from the residents and staff for the amazing work they do. This is greatly received.
Merry Christmas to all and Happy New Year and we look forward to seeing you all in 2025. Look after yourselves and stay safe Christmas.
