Daily Life
Collinson House really focuses on our moments approach and the importance of meaningful engagement; encouraging residents to participate in activities that are meaningful to them, offer reminiscence or to try new things and build relationships, we want our residents to enjoy life and maintain their independence.
We encourage support and prompt daily tasks, from making a cup of tea to pursuing hobbies and pastimes. This increases a sense of purpose, confidence, and achievement amongst our residents.
Residents look forward to our regular visits to local places of interest; such as, theatres, garden centres, or lunch at the local pub.

We cater for all dietary requirements as well as likes and dislikes, we recognise mealtimes are an activity and want people to really enjoy meal times. A lot of our activities are wrapped around food; world food days, fishy Friday are some of our most popular meal time experiences.
