Activities at Atfield House Care Home
Activities are an integral part of life at our care home. We want to ensure that the people we support have as much fun as possible during their time with us, so it’s important that our activities programme is created with the interests of residents in mind. Our skilled Activities Coordinators bring a certain uniqueness to the home that can’t be found anywhere else, and which is reflected in the activities they organise.

Life at Atfield House Care Home
Mayor's Garden Visit
Residents and staff have a great relationship with Hounslow's Mayor Tony Louki. He is always on hand to either zoom with us or visit when he can & this time he joined us in the garden to Judge our Easter bonnet competition. Residents donned their creations for a second time so he could pick his winner.
Community Deliveries
We want to say thank you to our lovely and very generous friends down at Lodge Brothers funeral directors. They arrived at the home armed full of healthy and not so healthy goodies for both Staff and Residents to enjoy.
Space travel
Residents spent the afternoon learning about space. They took a virtual tour, had a quiz and then watched a documentary all about each aspect.
International Scrabble Day
Residents really do enjoy a game of scrabble, when they found out there was a day dedicated to the game, they really upped the stakes. It got quite competitive with even a prize for the overall winner.
Easter Celebrations
Residents had a lot of fun over the Easter break. They made their own Easter bonnets, decorated little ceramic bunnies for the Easter table and also donated 100 Easter eggs to the local young carers too.
World Poetry Day
Our Residents book club tried something different for poetry day. They asked everyone their favourite poems and made their own book from all the recommendations. Everyone took turns in reading the extracts to the group. They all really enjoyed the change and one they will continue in the future.
