Our activities team arrange a varied programme, which may include music, films, pampering, crafts, board games, exercise etc. We welcome visitors for events such as piano recitals, music, drama entertainment and clothing parties. Special events are also organised to celebrate seasonal or national occasions. Regular meetings encourage feedback and suggestions about activities provided.

We often have a visiting scheme with a local nursery, where children come and undertake craft activities and games with those who live here. Both age groups seem to enjoy and benefit from his shared time.

Trips out are arranged, especially during the summer months, to various places of interest. Local shops are within a short distance for active family members to walk to and we have a dedicated hairdresser who visits once a week.

Everyone is welcome to participate in regular Christian devotions, undertaken by visiting speakers or friends of Bethany House. Communion is available weekly and you may ask your own minister to visit and receive communion privately if you prefer. Our pastoral team arranges groups and meetings with a variety of activities, which can include prayer, singing, Bible study, discussion and spiritual reflection. There are also visits from churches, local schools and student groups from time to time, such as at Christmas, Easter and Harvest.
