Activities
You can take advantage of a wide range of activities for both enjoyment and to maintain mobility. The Ivan Ward Centre has its own activities’ coordinators who organises: carpet bowls, reading to residents, providing large print books, breakfast in bed, listening to classical music, concerts and other entertainment, indoor games, outings, parties, pianists, sing-alongs and much more. A village minibus takes residents for drives, and there is a ‘happy hour’ each week.
