IN-ROOM ENTERTAINMENTHow Many Challenge!
This week’s challenge proved to be a
difficult one. But our residents took to it like
champions and again we had a fantastic
response. Although there were many
incorrect answers this week, there were
many correct! We hope they enjoyed their
prizes.
This Week’s Daily Activities
As the community feels some freedom from lockdown
and some of our residents prepare to go back to work,
the effort to keep those still locked down entertained in
their rooms continues. Crosswords, mazes, mind math
teasers and “find the” challenges were keep their minds
ticking this week.
