"Films and Horticulture"

About: Rampton Hospital / National High Secure Healthcare Service for Women

(as the patient),

I am a female patient who lives long term on Topaz ward. On a Wednesday morning all Topaz is at the (Diamond Resource Centre) DRC. When we get in its nice to listen to music and have a diet Pepsi. I was always dreading going to DRC for a long time, but DRC is not bad. Then on Friday all topaz staff and patients go to DRC and fresh air session then usually watch a film. I don’t get to watch many movies. Horticulture is on for the patients that enjoy it to feed the guinea pigs and chickens. It's not my cup of tea but it's good to get out, the pool table is open

Hello and Thankyou for taking the time to post your comments. Its great that you are enjoying your time in the DRC and have overcome your anxieties about this. I hope you continue to benefit from getting off the ward and trying out new opportunities.. We are always open to new ideas too so if there is anything else you would like to get involved with then please let a DRC staff know and we can consider this.

Kind regards

Sue Baker
