Full Activities Programme

Choosing the right care home for yourself or a loved one is about more than just comfort and care. It’s about finding a place where each day is filled with joy, purpose and meaningful connection. At Amberley Care Home in Manchester, we encourage our residents to continue to do what makes them happy, whether it’s exploring our gardens and grounds, socialising with friends and family, or enjoying one of our many daily activities.

Our activities coordinators go above and beyond to create an engaging programme that is both fun and inclusive. With dedicated spaces such as the cosy Blue Lounge for winter activities and the gardens during the summer months, our home is full of life and variety all year round. Loved ones are also welcome to join at any time, and activity schedules are sent to them in advance so they can plan to be part of these special moments together.

The Power of Engagement: Why Activities Matter

Staying active isn’t just about physical health. Research shows that regular engagement in social, mental and creative aspects has incredible benefits as we age. Activities such as cinema afternoons, music therapy, quizzes, or choir club can help maintain cognitive function and provide mental stimulation. Pamper sessions or social gatherings also bring a sense of relaxation and joy, releasing endorphins and lifting spirits.

Group activities create friendship and belonging, which in turn reduces isolation and fosters a strong community atmosphere. Our Resident Ambassador also plays an important role by connecting with residents to gather feedback and ideas, which are then shared with the wider team. As well as this, our quarterly resident meetings provide further opportunities for feedback, making the programme truly reflective of the residents who call Amberley their home.

A Vibrant Calendar at Amberley Care Home

Our dedicated activities team is passionate about creating variety and ensuring that every resident has something to enjoy. The weekly routine provides structure while always leaving space for new events and special occasions. Common weekly activities include cinema afternoons, music therapy, pamper days, choir club and external entertainers.

Beyond this regular rhythm, we also offer knit and natter groups, baking activities and creative workshops, which bring residents together for companionship and connection. Intergenerational activities take place from time to time, which build memorable bonds between residents and younger visitors, while larger family events are organised once a month to bring loved ones together and strengthen the feeling of community. Activities are not confined to just one area of the home but span all floors, with every space utilised to keep life at Amberley both engaging and flexible. One-to-one activities are also available for residents who may be bed-bound or prefer quieter engagement to ensure each person has access to tailored experiences that meet their individual needs.

Beyond the Everyday: Special Events & Celebrations

Throughout the year, our calendar is packed with seasonal celebrations. From decorating the home for a traditional Christmas complete with carols and a festive feast to hosting garden parties on sunny summer days, we bring joy and a sense of tradition to our community.

We also see families as an integral part of our Amberley community. We welcome families to participate in activities alongside their loved ones, creating cherished memories. Family members might join us for movie nights, picnics in the garden, or even assist with baking cookies in our resident kitchen. This not only strengthens family bonds but also allows families to see firsthand the care and engagement their loved ones receive at Amberley.

Regular community events and outings to local attractions and cultural spaces keep residents connected to life beyond the home, while our in-house activities create a strong and supportive daily routine. This combination of variety, creativity and continuity enables residents at Amberley to live each day with joy and purpose while feeling part of a thriving and welcoming community.
