Woodpeckers Summer Olympics

9 August 2024

This week, our residents have taken part in their own Summer Olympics, engaging in a range of activities to enhance strength, flexibility, and mobility.

Regular exercise enhances overall wellbeing and helps our residents maintain their physical mobility. Each resident was given their own fitness journal to record the exercise classes they attended, the number of steps they walked, and the different walking circuits completed in the garden. There was a sense of fulfilment and achievement as they completed their fitness journals and compared notes with each other.

They even took part in their own seated 100-metre sprint, which certainly got the heart rate up! All the week’s effort did not go unnoticed, and we celebrated everyone’s achievement by presenting them with a rosette.
