Residents at HC-One’s
Priory Gardens, residential, nursing and residential memory care home, in Pontefract have been getting their practice in for the 2022 Winter Olympics.
Residents Ada Falkinder, Joyce Gelder, Margaret Bradley and Janet Armitage took part in a snowball juggling event to celebrate the Winter Olympics.
There was lots of fun and laughing. One of the Residents involved, remarked, “I have really enjoyed trying something new and laughing together.”
At the end of the activity the Residents enjoyed throwing the snowballs at the Wellbeing Coordinator!
The Residents really enjoyed trying something new and doing activities together. It is great for them to learn a new skill.
It looks like there could be some future Olympians at Priory Gardens!
Allison Gill, Care Home Manager, commented, “Regular exercise and hand eye coordination is really important, good skills to keep up.”
