Activities at Latimer Court Care Home
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. You can take a look at some of our regular activities by clicking here.
Dan Taylor-Edwards
I'm Dan and I'm the Activities Coordinator here at Latimer Court. I joined the team in 2022. I have worked in care for many years as a carer and activities roles, and absolutely love my role here. I love working with the elderly and have a real passion to enrich every day and make their lives as special as they can be.
I have many ideas for group activities and events as well as for individual interactions, and love seeing these ideas coming to life and the difference it makes to each resident's day!

Hilda said to Dan our activity coordinator with in the home I will only make the one but by the time we finished our session Hilda make 5 Christmas cards, she really enjoyed herself making the cards and can’t wait to do it again.

Friday afternoon’s mean one thing its Knit & Natter time with Pam... Jessica especially enjoys coming to along to the knitting session on a Friday afternoon sat with friends, listening to the music while knitting away.
Nail Painting
Our lovely Doris really enjoys having her individual visits from the activity team, especially when she is having her nails painting, Doris says to me that she really fines it very therapeutic and always likes the smell of the hand lotion. Always a smile when I leave her room and a big thank you.
