Engaging Activities for Meaningful Days
At Choices day care centre, we believe that every day should be filled with purpose, creativity, and joy. That’s why we offer a range of thoughtfully designed activities, including arts and crafts plus music sessions, tailored to support the wellbeing of each individual following assessment.
Our Activities & Facilities
Quiz and events
Our gentle, memory-friendly quizzes are a great way to encourage mental stimulation in a relaxed and supportive environment. Topics often include music, history, general knowledge, and familiar everyday themes. Quizzes are adapted so everyone can take part, helping to spark memories, encourage conversation, and create moments of achievement and laughter.
Music and Singing
Music has a powerful connection to memory and emotion. Our music sessions include singing, listening to familiar songs, and gentle rhythm activities. These experiences can help reduce anxiety, improve mood, and encourage social interaction. For many individuals, music brings comfort, familiarity, and moments of joy.
Arts and Crafts
Our arts and crafts sessions provide a safe and supportive space for self-expression. From painting and drawing to simple hands-on projects, these activities help stimulate creativity while encouraging fine motor skills and focus. They can also spark memories and provide a sense of achievement, boosting confidence and mood.
Cinema Room
Our comfortable cinema room provides a welcoming space for relaxation and shared enjoyment. Regular film screenings and group viewing sessions encourage social interaction, helping individuals connect with others in a calm and familiar environment. Watching films particularly those that are familiar can support memory recall, spark conversation, and create a sense of enjoyment and belonging.
Gymnasium
Our fully equipped gymnasium offers a safe and supportive space where individuals can take part in gentle, structured physical activity following a full assessment. With guidance from trained staff, sessions are designed to help improve strength, mobility, and coordination, while also building confidence and promoting independence.
Commercial kitchen
We understand the importance of fresh, healthy, and balanced meals as part of overall wellbeing. Our on-site commercial kitchen prepares nutritious food daily using quality ingredients. Guests enjoy a delicious three-course lunch in a relaxed, social setting, with all dietary requirements and preferences carefully catered for.
Our compassionate team ensures that every activity is adapted to each person’s abilities and preferences, creating a positive and enriching environment where everyone feels valued and supported.
