Activities


We have a very wide and varied range of activities at the home, guaranteeing a happy and stimulating programme. Many of the residents enjoy the trips out for lunch, morning coffee or afternoon tea.

Our Residents’ Committee meet regularly giving everyone the opportunity to help shape future events, suggest new resources and contribute ideas, all organised by our dedicated Activities Coordinator.

Meet Darren Kenny, our very own dedicated Activities Coordinator

After spending more than 12 years in hospitality management, I knew that health care was my true calling. I became a mental health care worker, gaining experience working in adolescent and adult secure units. My wife and I moved over to Jersey, where I enjoyed my Activities Co-ordinator role in care homes. I was drawn to the role because I love what I do and seeing the residents enjoying themselves. I'm always trying new things and encouraging our residents to give it a go!
