Activities at Park View 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!

Park View Coffee Trip
We are often out with the residents in the local community as we are very lucky to be situated in very close proximity to cafés, pubs and shops. We have a very good relationship with the owners of these establishments and so very much enjoy going to visit everyone that work there! The residents and staff have been enjoying the winter sunshine, having a cup of tea and a slice of cake at one of our local coffee shops!
