Activities

When a new resident comes to Eshcol we like to get to know about them and what their interests and hobbies are and, based on this, our activity coordinators can then plan activities. Whether that be doing a  puzzle, singing, bingo, or just having some one-to-one quality time, we will always try our best to cater to each individual need.

We have an Eshcol House mini bus which is wheelchair friendly; this is used to take clients out to their destination of choice. Most recent outings have been to Carnon Downs Garden Centre, Trewithen Gardens, Trelissick Gardens – yes, our residents do enjoy a garden centre but then who doesn’t? We also go into Truro and try and support local plays and pantomimes.

We have armchair yoga sessions run by Nickie – this includes relaxation techniques and breathing exercises. Nickie is highly qualified and is able to  adapt her techniques to suit our individual clients’ needs, meaning no matter their mobility Nickie will always be inclusive.

We have regular entertainers in and residents who wish to can come into the lounge and enjoy some singing and dancing.

Sometimes the simple things are what people talk about the most when we ask residents what they would like to do. “Watch a movie, with a gin and tonic by my side and a bowl of crisps and popcorn on the go” is what so many seem to enjoy.

We have baking sessions with staff eager to sample the cakes that the residents have made. That gets very competitive.

As we are so blessed with our view a lot of the time our residents are just happy to sit in the lounge or garden looking out at Gerrans Bay. A beer or glass of sherry adds to the view.
