Activities at Mount Tryon Care Home

Our home is always full of life, and we can thank our wonderful Activities Coordinators for this. Dedication to creating a unique and interesting activities programme is what sets us apart from other homes. We always take into consideration that some people would prefer to pursue their own interests, which is why our team strive to incorporative activities that cater to a wide range of tastes and hobbies. Our trips out are always fun and exciting as well, and residents are guaranteed to return with stories to tell their loved ones!

Keeping Active

Here at Mount Tryon, while our ladies had a great sing a long, our gentlemen had a bit of man’s time with playing pool/snooker. Our male carers are always ready to be with our gentlemen, which spurs us off to gentlemen’s afternoon which will become a regular activity here at Mount Tryon.
