What Activities do the Elderly Enjoy?

There are many activities elderly people enjoy, even when these activities may be harder as physical or mental decline occurs. These activities may include watching rugby or football, listening to old music, looking at old photos and more. We created the Happiness Programme with these in mind.

The Happiness Programme is a first-of-its-kind initiative helping to change the lives of people living with cognitive challenges. We use interactive light technology to provide meaningful activities for residents and patients in care homes and care settings.  For more detail on what the Happiness Programme is and how it’s helping care venues across the UK, visit our getting started page.

Alternatively, jump to our dementialearning disability and NHS pages for more specific detail on how it’s helping care homes like Barchester and HC-One as well as hospitals and local authorities such as St George’s Hospital, London and Westminster and South Kensington Council.

For anything else, you can contact us here too.

 

 

Resident happiness levels have tripled during a 7 session study at Holme Lea, a HC-One home, based in Greater Manchester.

 
We started Social-Ability with the ambition to make people happier. 

We have long believed that being able to evidence the outcomes of magic table 360 sessions would lead to clear and unambiguous results.  The care team at Holme Lea used the Happiness Programme’s logbook tracker.

They recorded details from 7 sessions run during the lockdown this summer. These details included the before and after levels of happiness of those who took part in the sessions. 

The evidencing of session outcomes through our logbook is a critical part of every Happiness Programme subscription. You can find out more about our other reporting services and evidence base for CQC here.

This result follows hot on the heels of our recent social impact statistics.
