Lifestyle

Sheringham House offers a range of different activities that focus on increasing the independence of the individual. People are supported to use the house’s onsite garden and vegetable patch, and some individuals have managed to prepare a whole meal out of the vegetables they have grown on site. Staff will also assist people in developing independent living skills such as cooking, budgeting and meal planning.

Other activities individuals are able to participate in include baking, swimming, hydrotherapy, reflexology, arts and crafts, day centre activities, entertainers, theatre trips, and public transport days.
