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.
Activities and Events Partnerships
As part of our bespoke life-enrichment programmes, we host a number of live virtual events in the home on a regular basis through a number of partnerships with places of interest and world class performance companies

D of E Students Donate Wonderful Gifts
A huge thank you to Sutton School, the pupils are completing their Duke of Edinburgh Awards, this involves helping someone in the community, we were lucky to be chosen by the children. They raised money by selling flowers/plants at the school, with the money pupils purchased a wishing well & watering can planter & flowers from a local garden centre.
Intergenerational Activities
What a fantastic time we had with the students from Dudley skills training. They have visited us for the last few months and we enjoyed celebrating their last day with us. The residents really enjoyed their visits, especially Mavis who taught one of the young ladies to play dominoes. We wish them all the best for the future.
