Activities

At Bridge House we look to offer a lifestyle for our residents that is as similar as possible to their home lives, where they enjoy independence and the freedom to choose how they spend their day. Our staff are always on hand to support residents to be as independent as possible whilst helping with any of their needs – however large or small.

We actively encourage residents to maintain and cultivate links with the local community to ensure they still maintain social mobility and variety in their lifestyles, which are fundamental to their overall wellbeing. We regularly have visits from church choirs, school and other local groups.

In our experience, contact with friends, family and other relationships, are always welcoming visitors. We actively keep residents’ family and friends informed of any special events or days and regular activities with our newsletter. Person-centred care is extremely important to us so we have regular resident meetings, which family members are always welcome to attend.
