At Harley House care home we strive to keep our residents as active as possible and do our utmost to keep the ongoing programme of events as varied as possible. We employ an activities co-ordinator who is very popular with our residents. We have our very own minibus at Harley House and the activities co-ordinator takes the residents out on trips out to garden centres, pubs and other places of interest in the beautiful, rolling Leicestershire countryside. The team aims to make seasonal events, such as Christmas, Easter and birthdays memorable occasions for our residents. The Harley House annual Christmas parties, for example, where we invite carol singers, play games and have a sing-a-long, are always popular with our residents and their families. |
