8/10

✓
Relatives told us [...] 'They have a very good activities programme; they get them involved. [Family member] loves the singing and they sing with her. On her birthday they made banners and arranged an Abba sing along.' [...] a request was made for a knitting and sewing club.
Points to consider
Staff numbers are enough to cover needs, but no details on agency use or keeping staff long-term to make workloads easy.
Records showed adequate staffing was in place to meet people's needs. Staffing levels met the needs of people, in line with the providers staffing tool.
Activities include singing, themed events and hobbies like knitting, but no dedicated coordinator or specialist programmes to add variety beyond routine care.
