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.

Life at Waterside Court Care Home
Easter at Waterside Court
What a joyful Easter Sunday at Waterside Court!!
The Easter Bunny was in full swing, hiding and delivering chocolate treats, whilst at the same time being naughty as usual. The residents could not contain their joy as everyone got onto the egg-hunting mission.
What made the day even more special was the wonderful turnout from families and friends, who came along to share in the laughter, help with the hunt and create lasting memories together. Joyful days like these are what make us all feel blessed at Waterside Court.
A Cracking Experience at Waterside Court
We recently had the joy of welcoming Living Eggs here into our home – and what a magical experience it has been!!
Watching chicks hatch and grow right before our eyes brought smiles, wonder, and heartfelt memories flooding back for many of our residents. The gentle chirping and daily care routine provided a unique sense of purpose, connection, and calm.
For some, it was a trip down memory lane, sparking stories of farm life or childhood pets. For others, it was simply the joy of new life and the therapeutic comfort of spending time with animals.
Moments like these remind us how powerful nature can be in lifting spirits and creating shared joy in the home. Another week of you little beauties to watch you grow/ This experience is one we truly won’t forget!!
World Art Day!
Today at Waterside Court we proudly celebrated World Art Day with a successful Art Exhibition! It was a surreal moment for residents and visitors to the exhibition as they had an opportunity to experience the process of how Tracy works and her unique style of creating such beautiful works of art.
The art will continue to be displayed in the home for the rest of the week, and we are welcoming you to the exhibition and see for yourself.
Tracy has given a special discounted price on her art only just for this week, so please come and grab a bargain for her priceless work whilst you can.
Golfing at Hadden Hill Golf Club
We had a fantastic day practising our putting under the close eye of seasoned golfers. Who could be better to show us how it's done other than Mr Morley himself? He feels at home around the Hadden Hill golf course.
The weather was very kind with the sun shining, making it such a fun day. Thank you so much to the amazing team at Hadden Hill for your hospitality and kindness, and above all thank you very much to Barbara for arranging and making this possible.
We will certainly be back for more fun on the golf course.
Ukuleles at Waterside Court
What an unforgettable day at Waterside Court! Our residents were enthralled by a special ukulele performance that had everyone tapping their feet and smiling from ear to ear.
Everybody enjoyed the sweet, melodic tunes of the ukulele and the singing that captivated everyone, producing a sense of nostalgia for the room. Fred, one of our residents who is passionate about playing the ukulele, was absolutely thrilled by the performance.
A big thank you to the ukulele group for an unforgettable performance at Waterside Court! Your music brought so much joy to our residents, and we're truly grateful for the happiness you shared with us.
Doris Day
Today, we celebrate the legendary Doris Day here at Waterside Court. In tribute to her remarkable legacy, we honoured her timeless music with a special performance.
Fiona wowed the audience with a live performance of iconic songs like ‘Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps,’ ‘Que Sera, Sera,’ ‘Secret Love,’ and ‘Sentimental Journey,’ filling the room with nostalgia and joy.
Our residents were deeply touched by the tribute, many joining in song and fondly reminiscing about the golden era of music. The celebration not only brought smiles and laughter but also sparked cherished memories, creating a heart-warming atmosphere of connection and joy.
