The local Worplesdon Church visits regularly to hold uplifting services for the residents and even family members. Group prayers bring everyone together, while one-to-one room services are offered for those who request a personal touch. At Worplesdon View, we ensure that everyone’s spiritual needs are met, fostering peace and comfort within our community.
Singing and Moving
Becky visits Worplesdon View Care Home once a month, filling the care home with residents' favourite music beats. Her energetic sessions blend exercise with joy, encouraging everyone to move, stretch, and sing along. With her guidance, the residents sway to the rhythm, smiling as they reconnect with memories through song and gentle movement.
Tap Dancing Performance
Katie, a lively tap dancer, visited Worplesdon View Care Home to showcase her dazzling skills. With rhythmic beats echoing through the halls, she captivated residents with her energy. Katie even taught them some classic 60s dance moves, sparking laughter and joy as everyone joined in, tapping and singing to the music together.
Ukulele’s Performance
We always look forward to the ukulele group's visits—they never fail to bring joy to our home! This time, a full group of musicians treated us to our favourite old tunes and melodies, and we had a full house in attendance. The atmosphere was wonderfully musical as we joined in, singing along and creating a truly lively experience.
Sport Session
At Worplesdon View Care Home, we love to stay active! This month, we welcomed "Sport4Life," who led us in exciting activities like frisbee, volleyball, and throwing practice. Everyone had a fantastic time, and we’re thrilled they'll be returning monthly to keep us moving and energized. Looking forward to next time!
