About Us
At The Ferns Care Home, we believe laughter really is the best medicine (though we still let the nurses handle the actual prescriptions). We're on the lookout for a fun-loving, people-pleasing, creativity-fueled Activities Coordinator to bring joy, energy, and maybe a few dodgy dance moves to our residents' days.
Your Mission (Should You Choose to Accept It):
- Plan and lead activities that make our residents smile, laugh, and occasionally sing louder than you.
- Encourage everyone to join in — from bingo lovers to budding artists.
- Support residents with appointments and life goals (because everyone deserves something to look forward to).
- Help create a home filled with fun, friendship, and maybe a bit of glitter.
Essential Skills (Yes, Really):
- A mountain of creativity — if you can turn cardboard boxes into castles, you're our kind of person.
- Able to talk until the cows come home (and then keep chatting).
- Passionate about making people happy — cheesy smiles encouraged.
- Not afraid to sing Happy Birthday at least once a week (bonus points for harmonies).
- Love a singalong, a dance, or a spontaneous conga line.
- Partial to a game (or three) of bingo.
- An eye for arts, crafts, and the occasional sparkly masterpiece.
- Organised enough to juggle a calendar full of fun (and remember where the glue sticks went).
Perks & Benefits
- Company pension (for your future bingo fund)
- Discounted or free meals (because dancing burns calories)
- On-site parking (no more hunting for a spot before karaoke starts)
Please note: We're not currently offering sponsorship for this role.
If you've got the enthusiasm of a cheerleader, the imagination of an artist, and the patience of a saint — come and join us
