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 look forward to meeting you all.

Life at Southerndown Care Home
Our Christmas visit to Blenheim Palace
We Visited Blenheim Palace ‘The Kingdom of the Snow Queen’ for a Christmas outing. The Kingdom of the Snow Queen really is a truly magical experience. The palace rooms were transformed into magical, shimmering frost coved Kingdom of ice. We thought it was truly amazing day, and we all had such a fantastic time.
Evesham Country Park
We spent a day at Evesham County park for one of our Christmas outings. We thoroughly enjoyed the park with its amazing Christmas displays, and we loved the colour coordinated Christmas trees. We also enjoyed a tasty Christmas Lunch and we even had time to visit the Christmas Penguins. Everyone had such a festive fun filled day.
Winter Wonderland Afternoon
Southerndown has started the festive season with a pantomime from Tickled Pink Productions. We had such a great afternoon singing and dancing along with all our favourite festive Classics. What a great way to start the festive cheer.
Minibus Outing to the Rollright Stones
With the Rollright Stones just a short trip a way we thought it would be the perfect place to visit for an afternoon. We enjoyed the Stones it’s such an interesting place to visit, with its history and stunning views.
A Visit from Tickled Pink
We had a fabulous visit from Tickled Pink who performed an all singing, all dancing montage of their best shows of the last 20 years. We loved every minute of it , we all sang and danced along with songs from Beauty and the Beast and New York New York to name but a few.
Classical Music Performance
We had the pleasure of a special performance from The King and Rackham Duo here at Southerndown. They played some of our very favourite pieces of music such as Nessun Dorma. It was such a relaxing afternoon, and they play the music so beautifully a great time was had by all.
