Life at Hollymead House
Activities that bring people together.
Daily life at Hollymead House is about much more than care. We create opportunities for residents to enjoy familiar interests, try something new, spend time with others and simply have something to look forward to.
Activities are shaped around the people who live here, with plenty of choice for those who enjoy joining in and quieter options for residents who prefer time on their own or one-to-one support.
Everyday life
Choice, companionship and enjoyment
Activities with choice
Residents can join in as much or as little as they wish.
Time spent together

Individual interests
Quieter interests and one-to-one activities are just as important.
Something to look forward to

Joining in is always a choice.
Some residents love being at the centre of an event, while others prefer to watch, listen or enjoy quieter time. What matters is having the freedom to spend the day in a way that feels right for them.
More than something to do

A good activity does not have to be complicated. It might be hearing a familiar song, sharing a memory, enjoying a laugh with someone else or simply having something different happening around the home.

Choice comes first
