Activities at Llys-Y-Tywysog 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.
Paula Courtney
Hello I am Paula the Activities Coordinator, I have recently returned to Llys-Y-Tywysog. I worked at the home for over 5 years when my children were younger. My close connection with Llys remained as my father in law was former resident, so I was still visiting regularly. I am delighted to be back working with the team.
I am creative and hope to bring new ideas for activities and events as well as still running firm favourites! My passion is about enhancing the lives of the residents from individual time through to big celebratory events. Sarah will continue to work as part of the activities team, working alongside me part time whilst studying for her degree at Swansea University. As a team we are committed to Barchester's Life Enrichment programme ensuring we work with mind, body and soul.
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 Llys-Y-Tywysog Care Home
Gentlemen’s Club!
For Gentlemen’s club today we went to @penopolis in Llanelli for a game of ten pin bowling.
Our men had a fabulous time, Dillwyn won the game though it was very close but it wasn’t about competiting it was all fun and laughter from all.
After bowling we tried the food and they had chicken burgers, chips and a pint to wash their food down. The gentlemen said they would love to go again and spend the day there!
Welsh Lesson With Rhian!
Today we had a Welsh lesson with Our Welsh champion Rhian!
Our residents love learning about the Welsh language and together they rekindled their language and culture together.
