**Where youll work**

Activities are without a doubt a very important part of life in the home. With a team of three activities staff and a range of skills, the variety of the activities in the home is as diverse. We love to tailor activities to our residents. We recently invited a jazz band to perform and a resident joined in for a jamming session. Another of our ladies, who lives with dementia, recently wrote a list of things she would love to do before she hits 100. One of these was to spend time in a police car. So, with the help of a kind local officer from West Mercia Police, armed with handcuffs, she managed to tick one of these things off her list! In addition to this, we have a resident who once made hats for The Queen, as well as another who gives sugarcraft lessons to our team.
