Social & Recreational


There are planned programmes of social activities for residents to participate in at the Home. The Home has a dedicated Activities Organiser for this purpose and planned activities are posted within the Home. Residents are consulted individually in relation to their interests and wishes regarding social activities as part of the Service User Planning Process. The range of activities available are set out below:

  • Weekly movement & exercise
  • Regular musical entertainment
  • Fashion show/visit to a clothes
  • Regular outings to local coffee shops
  • Regular outings to the local pubs/restaurants
  • Regular outings to local places of interest
  • Visits to cinema and theatres
Although Yarborough House does not provide transport, we are able to help organise a taxi services, which would be at own cost. For those residents who do not wish to participate in planned activities, there are TV, radio and video facilities available within the lounge areas. Additionally, there are adequate supplies of books and current newspapers and a quiet room is available for those residents who just wish to relax, looking out into the garden. The Home has a supply of large-print books.
