I plan the program events and activities for all residents living at the home. I arrange day to day activities such as arts and crafts or baking, visiting performers e.g. singing for the brain, local dance schools and much larger events and fundraisers: Summer and Christmas fetes, the national care home open day coming up in June.

I assist with planning events and also on the day, I am involved in booking: vendors, entertainment, venues. I assist with set up, clear up, ticket collection/checking. Problem solving throughout the event, working in a changing environment, working with teams of all sizes. Generally ensuring the smooth running of the event and making good memories for all who attend.

I work as a costumed entertainer for parties and events bringing to life storybook characters, I also assist in the planning and running of large events such as the fairytale walk which was a picnic event with the princesses and the Christmas ball.
