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.

Macmillan Coffee Morning

Macmillan Coffee Morning

We held our coffee morning on the 23rd September. We had a 70s & 80s theme going, and some of the staff dressed up for the occasion. We had prizes for the best costume and the best cake. The best costume went to Nicole for her top gun outfit and the best cake went to Kieren for his carrot cake.

Everybody enjoyed the day and we all had fun.
