Activities Are So Important |

Regent’s residents also welcome people from the community in St John’s and the wider Worcestershire area in to their home. They include students from local schools such as Our Lady Queen of Peace, who also take part in a pen pal scheme with the home. Students who are training to be paramedics and physicians from the University of Worcester often carry out work placements in our home. The residents also love visits from local nursery children, who like to join us for a sing-along. This is a wonderful activity, especially for our residents who live with dementia as it reminds them of a time when they sang nursery rhymes with their own children. The gardens at Regent are glorious. They are the entire length of the home and many of the bedrooms and lounge areas have patio doors leading out onto them. We are also building raised wooden planters for the residents to enjoy growing their own, plus there is a summer house and water feature. Our residents love trips away from the care home to places like the Cob House Country Park near Martley, where they can feed the animals and enjoy a cup of tea and slice of scrumptious cake. Recently our gents had a fantastic time when they were taken to a sports bar in Worcester, where they played darts and pool while enjoying a pint. |
