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
Musical mystery tour
Our homes had a brilliant time with curator Sarah Deters as she took us on a virtual ‘Music Through the Ages’ tour of St Cecilia’s Hall: Concert Room and Music Museum.
Our residents were thrilled to discover weird and wonderful musical instruments, hear their unusual sounds, and find out how instruments have changed over the last 500 years.
The virtual live event explored the world-renown collection of musical instruments on display at St Cecilia’s Hall, Scotland’s oldest concert hall.
Enid Blyton Reminiscence Session
Residents at our home have enjoyed spending time together for an extra special reminiscence session with some of their favourite books from their pasts. Enid Blyton was a well know children’s writer whose books have been worldwide best sellers since the 1930’s. We love encouraging our residents to continue exploring their passion for books and hearing about some of the best books of all time that they have read.
Mind Active
Our residents have enjoyed attending a tea dance with Mind Active at our local Salvation Army centre. Residents Lillian, Valerie, Isabel and Ruth have enjoyed getting together with our local community to celebrate their passion for music and dancing and also enjoyed joining in a lovely raffle and quiz with resident Lillian winning some yummy chocolate treats.
Long service celebrated
Congratulations to Joanne on being awarded her 10 years service award. Joanne is a valued member of our homes housekeeping team and has always gone that extra mile for those living here at Meadow Park. Thank you Joanne for you continued support and hard work that you put into your job role.
Laughter Yoga
Our residents have took part in a special Laughter Yoga session this month and it was great to see everyone getting a little bit silly and having fun with it. Laughter is an important part of everyone’s daily life and what better way to laugh then to laugh together with a friend.
World Chocolate Day
Our residents have enjoyed a sweet treat to celebrate this year’s World Chocolate Day at Meadow Park. Our homes chocolate fountain with a choice of fruit and marshmallows to dip was the perfect ingredient to make the day wonderful for all.
