What makes us special?
Where are we?

Activities and events
Your loved one can enjoy our beautifully landscaped gardens, or relax in the sunshine on the patio areas. The hair salon offers an opportunity for a spot of pampering, and we have carers trained in reflexology. Residents enjoy our memory corners with pictures of the old Coventry dance halls and our vintage record player to reminisce songs from yesteryears.
We created a balanced schedule of optional events and ensure a variety of activities to empower residents to explore their interests and discover new ones. We offer music therapy for residents living with dementia, as well as a variety of sessions including armchair exercises, gardening, baking, flower arranging, arts and crafts, bingo, quizzes and church services. We also have a dedicated chaplain at Charnwood House.
Award-winning music therapy
Charnwood House care home is committed to providing alternative therapies such as music therapy to help alleviate isolation and the symptoms for those living with dementia. Our trained and award-winning therapist is funded by charitable donations. They interact directly with residents through live music therapy sessions. This includes singing, playing simple percussion instruments or responding to musical cues in a one-to-one or group setting.
