Activities at The Cedars Bourne 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.
Helen Hudson
Hello. I’m Helen, the Activities Coordinator at The Cedars. I joined the team in 2021 and I have lots of skills that I can use to create an interesting and varied programme of activities, events and celebrations for residents to enjoy. I am a qualified holistic therapist and offer an holistic approach to activities in the home, I love creating new activities that our residents enjoy, taking residents out on day trips and promoting wellbeing through lots of different activities. When I am not at work I love playing my clarinet, crocheting and art - I use all of these in my role.

Life at The Cedars Bourne Care Home
Baubles and Mulled Wine
We made baubles for our Christmas trees at The Cedars and enjoyed a glass or two of mulled wine at the same time. We are feeling very festive...
Aladdin visits The Cedars
We all had a fabulous time (oh, yes we did) when Eva Long Productions brought a socially-distanced performance of Aladdin to our Rowan Lounge. Nothing gets us in the Christmas spirit more than a panto!
Christmas Jumper Day
We loved staying warm and snuggly in our Christmas Jumpers at The Cedars in Bourne.
Making our own Christmas cards
This group of ladies loved being creative and making their own cards to send to family and friends at The Cedars in Bourne.
Fun for a good cause with the elves
There was fun at The Cedars on National Elf Day when staff dressed up as elves and residents wore elf headbands. This was all in a good cause - to support Alzheimer's Society.
Decorating the Christmas tree
Residents loved decorating the Christmas tree at The Cedars in Bourne. They shared their favourite memories of previous Christmases while they made it look stunning with its traditional gold and red colour scheme.
