Activities at Meadow Park Care Home
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.

Life at Meadow Park Care Home
London Fashion Week
Residents and staff have celebrated London Fashion week in style, we all donned our glad rags and strutted our stuff down our very own red carpet, boogied the afternoon away to all the different eras of music and had a right good party, with lots of snacks and alcoholic beverages.
Celebrating Chinese New Year
Residents here at Meadow Park have enjoyed celebrating Chinese new year, the year of the rabbit. Residents hand crafted Chinese lanterns and sampled some of the Chinese cuisine, there were very mixed opinions, but all enjoyed all the same.
Musical Memories
Residents were entertained by ‘Musical Memories’ everyone was on their feet dancing and singing along to all the old songs reminiscing about the good old days.
Starlings virtual talk
Across our services our residents have enjoyed a wonderful live virtual talk about starlings, one of the UK’s most gregarious birds, hosted by Rachel Dowse from The Royal Parks London.
Rachel examined our long history with this bird and the importance of common species to our lives. Our residents had the opportunity to find out more about the great murmuration and why we need to pay special attention to these beauties before it's too late.
The virtual experience was truly enjoyed by all.
Deck the halls!
Residents have had another jam packed day with all things Christmas. Ruth, Joan and Lillian have helped our handy man tony positioning our special visitor at the homes porch, Santa!
We have reminisced about making decorations as children, weaving paper to make paper chains and covering acorns in glitter, Margaret said they were the best kind of Christmas decorations.
Residents are enjoying the coziness of the home and the run up to the festive period, relaxing of an evening by the twinkling lights with the fire on and a nice cup of hot chocolate.
Wansbeck Christmas campaign
We would like to say a huge THANK YOU to everybody that donated gifts to the Wansbeck Christmas campaign. Today our gifts have been collected and will be taken to be distributed to those unfortunate and in need.
Here at meadow park we pride ourselves in being caring and helpful towards others, so we knew this was a campaign for us. We are overwhelmed with the support we have received from our staff, families and community, I’m sure we will put some big smiles on children’s faces this Christmas.
