Activities at Parley Place Care Home

We understand that the people we support have passions and interests that could be difficult to pursue after moving into a care home – but that doesn’t mean we don’t encourage them to try! Some hobbies can define a person, so our Activities Coordinators are dedicated to ensuring that everyone we support is able to do what makes them happy to the best of their abilities. Social events are organised with individual tastes in mind and with the idea that residents have the opportunity to try new and exciting things.

Activities Co-ordinator

I love being a friendly face for our residents.  A day in their lives should be filled with the care they deserve and enriched with activities.  We embrace each and every moment and make memories, I have many skills and a passion to provide our residents with the social interactions, lots of activities, smiles, laughter and fun.

Personal Trip out

Liz wanted a trip to the garden centre with a stop off at the cafe for coffee and cake, not a fan of the mini bus so Brian walked down to our local one and they enjoyed some time browsing.

Trip to the Quay

Christchurch Quay was the destination in the mini bus this week, we had an ice cream whilst watching the swans and cygnets next to the water.

Kerplunk!

A very competitive game that required a lot of concentration as shown on our residents faces!  Kerplunk is now the game of the moment here!

Tour De Barchester

We welcomed the Tour De Barchester riders into Parley Place this morning, what a glorious day for a cycle ride!

Our professionals, residents and guests cheered them into the home where they enjoyed some refreshments before setting off on their way again.
