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
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
Pom-Pom Queens
Our residents have been getting involved with a charity called Just Straight Talk. Every Thursday, we attend a community centre for a coffee morning and make pom-poms that get distributed in the community where, once found, get moved to another place to raise awareness for isolation and loneliness. So far, some of the pom-poms made by our residents have been moved and found in Australia, Greece, California and Spain!
The coffee morning has proved to be hugely beneficial to our residents, and especially for one lady who now socialises more because of this!
The residents have since began pom-pom making for projects within the home starting with the Rainbow of Positivity! More projects are beginning and it’s wonderful to see them so dedicated and excited about an activity!
Oomphtastic!
Here at Broadway Halls, the residents love a bit of chair based exercise provided by Matt and Julie as part of the Oomph team!
The exercise class is about positively changing the impact of ageing by making sure the sessions include social interaction, physical mobility and mental stimulation.
There was nothing but laughter heard all around when Oomph is going on, and staff ensure everybody is included, no matter what their mobility levels are. The classes run 3 times a week and also include relaxation, chair football and volleyball!
There really is something for everybody when it comes to Oomph!
