Activities at Tennyson Wharf Care Home
Our activities team are great at building the activities programme around the likes and interests of the people we care for. Ensuring that our social events offer fun and adventure is part of the ethos of our home; it’s important that those we support can enjoy an active and social lifestyle. Of course, there will always be those who prefer peace and quiet, and in these instances, a cup of tea and a chat are always welcomed.

Life at Tennyson Wharf Care Home
Josie's Birthday
Our residents sang happy birthday outside to our ever popular Josie, respecting the 2 meter rule. She was very pleased and surprised to her friends from the home making such an effort.
VE Day Poster
Local children from the Manor Leas Academy produced a nice VE Day Poster for our residents. It brought a big smile to many faces during these difficult times as they honorably celebrate VE Day on Friday. The children really enjoyed creating these & have much admiration for the older generation.
Green Fingers
Peter, our 95 year old and one of our most active residents is out bright and early, helping our garden maintenance team.
Football Magic
Residents enjoy playing a game of football on our interactive 'Magic Table' technology. Great fun for all to participate in, without having to breaking a swett.
Queen's Birthday Celebrations
Our residents enjoyed celebrating the Queen's birthday. They had lots of fun playing a trivia quiz and made cakes and special biscuits. Not to forget waving flags whilst watching the TV tributes.
St George's Day
Residents enjoyed making cakes and biscuits decorated with our national flag, to help celebrate St George's Day.
