Activities at Vecta House 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.

Easter Celebrations

We all enjoyed our chocolate eggs over Easter with many other activities going on, including arts and crafts, where we made Easter bonnets.

Indoor Gardening

We enjoy our garden space here a Vecta House, and we all love taking part in doing the garden and getting our hands dirty. We have been taking part in planting the seeds ready for them to go out in the garden.

Greek Independence Day

We had our own fun by listening to some Greek music whilst playing with balloons and doing what the Greek do with plates, but ours was paper. We also looked around Greece virtually, then in the afternoon we settled down and watched some movies that were set in Greece.
