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.

The residents had a wonderful time watching some chicks hatch. They had a little bet to see which one out of the ten eggs would hatch first. It was a real talking point and a lovely thing to see.
