Activities at Mulberry Court Care Home

The team at Mulberry Court works hard to support and encourage residents to participate in both group and individual activities, based around their preferences and lifestyle choices. We take time to get to know each person, sitting with them and listening to them speak about their lives, interests, and aspirations. We have access to our own minibus so outings to nearby places of interest are available; for example local museums, art galleries, garden centres, and public houses. We also host themed evenings, such as 'Quiz and Meal-in-a-Basket', 'The Races (Greyhounds, Horses)', and 'Takeaway and Movie Night' that we also encourage relatives to come to. We believe lifestyle choices and activities are one of the most important aspects of a care home, and it is essential that we help residents to have fulfilling and enjoyable lives.

Life at Mulberry Court Care Home

Christmas party

Residents and staff got together for a traditional Christmas Party with crackers and Santa hats all round.  We had a lovely afternoon singing along karaoke style and reminiscing about Christmas’s gone by with loved ones.

,

Light up bottle decorating

Residents decorated empty wine bottles with all sorts of Christmas sparkle and tinsel.  Glass pens were used to write festive messages on and then cork lights put inside, a great invention and so effective!

Christmas Wreath Making at Spen Court

Nothing goes to waste at Mulberry Court as our gardener Chris Stone was pruning the shrubbery in our beautifully well kept gardens we decided to make use of it and make Christmas wreaths.

Gardening gloves were a must with some very prickly holly but our hardened residents were undeterred in their quest! Look how lovely they came out. Well done everyone!

,

Bauble workshop

Residents filled clear plastic baubles with all sorts of Christmas fillings from  fake snow to tiny little reindeers!  Some very creative stars as a backdrop for the baubles made gorgeous decorations for their rooms.

,

Santa's Grotto

A Santa’s Grotto was made in our reception and residents posed for the camera for a photoshoot!  The portraits were then made into personalised Christmas cards for their families by the residents themselves.  Some residents preferred to have photo’s in their own room which meant no one was left out.

,

Advent calendar

Residents had great fun creating Mulberry Court’s unique Advent Calendar! Starting with simple white baby socks they made Santa Stockings for each day of December adding a Chocolate Gold coin into each one.  The end result was amazing!
