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.
Brian Ramsay
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.

Life at Parley Place Care Home
Making Easter Nests
For cooking club this week we made Easter Egg nests for our guests to have with our Easter Afternoon Tea!
Easter Celebration
We welcomed the community and the wonderful Bournemouth Youth Marching Band into the home to celebrate Easter with us, the played some wonderful tunes from modern to classic. We held an Easter egg hunt in the garden, a raffle and had some stalls for people to browse. A fun day was had by all.
National Pie Week
For National Pie week we made our own pie - instructing Brian on what to do to make the perfect pastry. We also held a pie tasting session - the top results were all very close so we may have to do another tasting session to decide!
Gardening Club
This week's gardening club had us planting seeds - this time Cherry and Apple seeds to watch grow and plant out in the garden later this year!
National Bread Week
For National Bread week we made our own Bread Plait - which we then enjoyed with our soup as our starter for lunch!
Morning Social
The sun was shining so we took our coffees and went and sat in the garden to have a social morning chatting and enjoying the warm sun.
