Activities at Queens Court Care Home
Activities are one of the most important aspects of our care home, providing fun and companionship, so it is essential that our team are dedicated to ensuring that residents are entertained and that life at Queens Court is fun and active. Throughout the home, there is a choice of lounges, which have been designed for people who enjoy socialising and love making new friends. Music therapy, speakers of interest, events, cinema screenings and family events are offered regularly, as well as the Book Club or Poetry Corner, for those who enjoy quieter activities. Our social programme is varied and exciting and is available seven days a week. You can be as busy as you like. Our friends of Queens Court regularly support our special events and activities at the home, which include trips to the seaside and National Trust site

Life at Queens Court Care Home
MP enjoys our hospitality!
Stephen Hammond, MP so enjoyed the cup cakes we presented him with last week, he sent us a photo of him eating one at his home address!
"Please thank Shaaron and all the team for a fantastic visit last Friday. Here is a picture of me enjoying the wonderful cup cakes you so kindly gave me. I didn’t want to appear greedy however my wife and daughter told me off for not taking all of them!"
