At Crossley House, we have a wide variety of visiting entertainers who come in regularly, music-for-health exercise sessions take place, we have slide shows of the local area and a florist comes in and demonstrates flower arranging. All activities are of course optional and it is down to the individual to choose whether they want to be involved. |
