Activities at Southerndown Care Home
Our specialist activities staff are committed to organising a mix of activities and events for residents and the local community to get involved in, including trips out to local places of interest in our minibus and visits from entertainers and musicians. It is important to us that each individual who we support can get as much from these as possible, so we try our best to arrange activities that reflect their interests and capabilities as best as possible, and encourage them to participate in any way they can. We also encourage relatives to join with activities and events as often as they can.

I have worked at Southerndown since 2013. I enjoy providing many various activities for our residents, such as gardening groups, trips out in the mini bus, quiz days and art therapy, amongst the many things we enjoy to do.
I look forward to meeting you all.

Life at Southerndown Care Home
Open Day at Southerndown
We had a very special visit from Farms 2 Ewe on National Care Home Open Day.
Residents and staff had a lovely day with a Shetland pony called Sweetie, three Pigmy goats, two sheep, four beautiful ducks and, of course, the rabbits.
All of the farm animals were a huge hit with everyone.
Southerndown Celebrates the Queen's 90th Birthday
Southerndown residents and staff have celebrated the Queen’s birthday in style this year with a party fit for a queen; everyone dressed in red, white or blue for the occasion.
What a wonderful way to spend the day, with a sumptuous buffet, Pimm's flowing and a harmonious sing-a-long.
The Seeds of Southerndown
Residents and staff here at Southerndown have been making the most of the beautiful weather; we have been planting seeds and flowers in our courtyard garden to get ready for Barchester in Bloom 2016.
What a wonderful way to spend sunny afternoons.
