Activities at Waterside Court Care Home

Our teams are trained to enrich the lives of residents through stimulating the mind, body and soul, and taking the time to learn about each person to ensure everyone receives support that adds enrichment to their life.

We understand that the people we support have passions and interests that could be difficult to pursue after moving into a care home – but that doesn’t mean we don’t encourage them to try! Some hobbies can define a person, so our Activities Coordinators are dedicated to ensuring that everyone we support is able to do what makes them happy to the best of their abilities. Social events are organised with individual tastes in mind and with the idea that residents have the opportunity to try new and exciting things.

National Puzzle Day

We celebrated National Puzzle Day here at Waterside Court with an afternoon of fun, laughter, and teamwork! Residents enjoyed piecing together puzzles, challenging their minds, and sharing stories along the way. It was a wonderful opportunity to connect, engage, and celebrate the joy of problem-solving. 

Irene is our resident puzzle champion. She tackled every puzzle with unmatched focus and enthusiasm, inspiring us all with her determination. Watching her effortlessly piece everything together was a highlight of National Puzzle Day at Waterside Court. Her love for puzzles reminds us how powerful and rewarding a challenge can be! It was a special day that brought everyone closer together and sparked smiles all around!

"What an amazing Armchair Dance session we had here at Waterside Court today!" 

Everybody enjoyed singing along and dancing with passion. Not only did we have fun, but the session also aimed at boosting our residents' mobility, improving coordination, and lifting everyone's spirits.

Such a beautiful way to stay active, have fun, and create lasting memories together.

Elvis in the Building

We had Elvis in the building at Waterside Court as we celebrated the Birthday of 'The King of Rock 'n' Roll' with a special Elvis tribute by Cody.

Storytelling

Today, here at Waterside Court, we journeyed back in time with the story of the Three Wise Men and their visit to "Baby Jesus."   

To bring the story to life, we got creative by making our own crowns to celebrate the kingship of Jesus. 

The residents enjoyed crafting together, adding glitter and colourful decorations to their crowns, just like the wise men would have. It was a wonderful time of reflection, creativity and community get-together.

Christmas Carol Performance

It's definitely beginning to look a lot like Christmas here at Waterside Court.   

We had an amazing performance by Goring and Streatley Concert Band, Clarinet Ensemble this week.

The band played Christmas carols, and what a festive atmosphere with the rich, melodic sound of the clarinets blending beautifully with the familiar tunes of holiday classics.     

Thank you to everyone for being part of this event and how incredible and special it was for everyone who was present.
