Activities at Broadway Halls Care Home

Activities are the cornerstone of a wholesome home experience, and our Activities Coordinators are always putting their creative minds to the test by organising new and exciting social events for residents to partake in. Of course, we take into account the likes and dislikes of those we support, so if someone doesn’t feel like trying something new, there will always be something on offer to reflect their personal interests. For the people who may just prefer some peace and quiet instead, we also offer one-to-one time that can be enjoyed with a nice cup of coffee or just a simple chat – whatever they desire.

Scott Bates

Activities Coordinator

Hi I'm Scott, and I am privileged to be the Activities Co-ordinator at Broadway Halls.

Our Residents are special people with many wonderful stories to tell about their lives, and it is my job to understand their life history, their interests and theirs needs in order to deliver a person centred life enrichment programme.

I enjoy putting smiles on their faces as often as I can. I love to entertain and aim to ensure that every resident's interests and hobbies are supported. I have worked in care and in activities in previous roles, and I love my job!

Outside of work, I am busy being a Father, I try to play football and have a keen interest in metal detecting.

Life at Broadway Halls Care Home

Commonwealth Baton Relay

Residents from Edgbaston Beaumont home bought our Barchester baton on the third leg of its relay journey & handed it over to us at Broadway Halls.  The atmosphere was fabulous with singing & dancing with our team followed by tea & cakes.

Enjoying Nature & Local History

A sensory stroll around our local park taking in the sounds of the birds tweeting & the leaves blowing in the wind. We also took in the beauty of the ruins & all the different flowers that have grown since we last visited.

Jubilee Celebrations Fit For a Queen

What a fabulous afternoon we had celebrating the Queen's platinum jubilee. It was great to see so many families turn up in support.  A warm thanks to our special guests, Sarah from Top Church, Shona from pom-poms 4Loneliness & Deputy Mayor of Dudley & consort for celebrating with us.

Local Firefighters Visit

We had a lovely visit by the firemen from Dudley station.  They came in their fire engine & enjoyed coffee & cake with us. We enjoyed finding out about the wonderful work they do in looking after the community.  We look forward to their next visit & hopefully a ride in the fire engine!

Games Afternoon ~ Just the Perfect Tonic!

One resident said she had never played scrabble before so we didn't hesitate in getting the board out. After the game someone suggested a cup of tea & sit together for a chat & a few games of dominoes! The conversation & laughter was flowing, perfect for a Sunday afternoon. 

Pampering Afternoon

A range of activities from completing jigsaws, aqua paints to reminiscence chats & pamper sessions.  We had great conversations about the past & present, it's great to sit back & listen to stories from our residents about times that have made them happy.
