Private Gardens

Our lovely courtyard garden provides the perfect retreat for residents seeking relaxation. Here, residents can take leisurely strolls through the garden or engage in a bit of gardening or socialising with loved ones. We firmly believe in the importance of residents being able to step outside into a private and secure space to get some fresh air and maintain regular physical activity for their overall well-being. Thus, we actively encourage residents to embrace the outdoors whenever possible.

When the weather permits, we organise activities within our beautiful grounds whether enjoying live entertainment or playing games. The garden is the ideal setting for residents and their loved ones to indulge in Afternoon Tea, connect with nature, or immerse themselves in a captivating book.

A Serene, Secure Haven

Our garden offers a perfect outdoor sanctuary where residents can safely enjoy nature and engage in various gardening pursuits, whether it’s planting new greenery or nurturing existing planters.

A gardening group promotes social connections and also allows residents to bond with like-minded individuals while experiencing a sense of independence and responsibility. We’ve witnessed the positive impacts of gardening and outdoor activities on our residents firsthand. That’s why, whenever the weather permits, our teams go to great lengths to organise outdoor activities that everyone can enjoy.

Engaging Outdoor Activities

During warmer days, our residents have the opportunity to join in our outdoor games. Whether it’s lawn bowls or ball games, there are numerous fun and engaging pastimes to get involved in for a bit of friendly competition.

These outdoor games and activities promote a more joyful lifestyle; research has demonstrated that participating in games can reduce stress levels and enhance self-esteem. Taking part in group activities enables older people to maintain problem-solving skills and hand-eye coordination while moving around more frequently, promoting mental and physical health.
