Can anyone recommend a cd or a song list with suitable sentimental songs to encourage a sing-along, perhaps also one that encourages a bit of movement? :)

Hi Kymberly!

I'm not sure if you saw this activity but it has playlists on YouTube and Spotify for the 40's, 50's 60's, and 'Rainy Day' Sing-Alongs.

There are lots of free lyric websites online, you could copy them into a Word Document and print out a copy for everyone.

Golden Carers is just wonderful. An amazing resource shared all over the world. I use Golden carers on a daily basis and added with Pinterest, it just makes my job that little bit easier on those days when inspiration doesn't come easy. I love that there is always something new every time I look.

Guess Who?

I get the staff to bring in a young photo of themselves. The photo goes up on the notice-board for a week with entry forms. Some of the guesses are hilarious!

Indoor putting weekly league

Golf is recognised as a good activity for promoting mental, physical and social wellbeing. Putting is a relaxing and ideal indoor activity that can be done by people with previous golfing skills and those who have never played before.
