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.

Minibus Trip

Residents have been on minibus trips throughout May and June to see the spectacular displays of Rhododendrons in Moorlands Nature Reserve located in Shipton-by-Beningbrough. Resident were walked through the beautiful flowers taking time to look at all the wildlife and scenery.

Dementia Action Week

Dementia Actions was a very busy week indeed! We did a mile a day for a week in May to raise money for Alzheimer’s Society. We then hosted a Dementia Café and asked our residents, friend and family to join us, it was such a success and we raised over £230.00

Yorkshire Carer of the Year

Our amazing carer Bless Palmer who retired after 10 years long service in January 2023 was nominated for North Yorkshire Carer of the Year! The anonymous nominations were made and we find out on 28th September whether Bless has won, whatever the outcome we are all very proud of Bless!

International Nurses Day

On International Nurses Day we made a special effort to thank our own nurses here at Mulberry Court with a little pamper package to unwind when they get home after a long shift.

Story telling with Jon Sleigh

Residents across our services had a delightful time during a special virtual sensory storytelling event, led by Art Historian Jon Sleigh from the Historic Royal Palaces.

Jon took us on a journey to discover some of the more unusual and unexpected inhabitants of the palaces and the Tower of London, sharing fascinating stories about the pets at the palaces.

Whilst enjoying the virtual experience, our residents were treated to hot beverages, delicious biscuits, berries and cakes. It was a truly lovely time for all.

Wedding bells chimes at Mulberry Court

There wasn’t a dry eye in the house at Mulberry Court care home in York as staff and residents waved off fellow resident, Jean Doughty, to go and see her great-grandson, Ricky Doughty marry his gorgeous bride Becky Taylor at York Registry Office. It was touch and go whether Jean would be able to attend the ceremony, she really didn’t think it would be possible, so everyone breathed a sigh of relief when the big day came and she was able to go thanks to the help of all of the staff. Jean said it was the best thing ever to be able to surprise her great grandson and be part of his big day.
