Life at Thorndene
Thorndene’s annual Strawberry Tea for Families & Friends
It is impossible to encapsulate daily life at Thorndene in
such a brief space as every day is different for each
person who lives here.
Thorndene has its own day care facility and Residents
are, if they wish, able to work in the grounds and kitchen.
Various activities are held in our day care facility,  and
many residents attend courses at college or vocational
centres and if there is any special activity requested
we will try to accommodate the resident’s wishes.
Mealtimes are considered especially significant at Thorndene.
These times are important as they are community routines
that allow the residents to interact with one another .  
Any special dietary requirements or requests a resident may
have are catered for and alternatives to the main menu are
always offered to our residents.
Opportunities are available to residents for regular
shopping trips for any personal items that they wish to
purchase plus regular trips to the theatre etc are organised.
Staff always provide the necessary level of support to make
certain of an enjoyable outing.
