In the morning, a local shop can deliver your daily milk or newspaper, and during the day we’ll give you a call to check you’re okay. After breakfast in your apartment or the restaurant, you might choose to meet friends in one of our communal lounges, or take part in one of our regular activities. At lunchtime, the restaurant serves delicious hot meals, or you may want to prepare lunch for yourself, or for friends or family in your apartment.
If you fancy a change of scenery, you can walk or drive to Bideford for a spot of shopping or lunch. Alternatively, you might feel like taking a stroll around Victoria Park, or you could visit the nearby seaside town of Westward Ho!.
In the afternoon, you might join us in one of our lounges for our regular social events, enjoy a game of pool or table tennis, or visit the hair salon for a bit of pampering. By evening, you may want to take it easy after all the activity! If not, you can always join friends to watch TV or for a chat, a game of cards or a mutual hobby.
