Activities at Cadbury Hall 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.
Hannah Lewis
Hi, my name is Hannah and I am the Activities Coordinator at Cadbury Hall.
I studied ‘Creative Expressive Arts, Health and Wellbeing’ at university and am passionate about using the arts to aid people’s social, physical, and mental wellbeing. In my spare time I love to dance, sing, and act, and help to run a local drama group for children aged 10-18.
With the support of all staff at Cadbury Hall and feedback from residents, we aim for a varied and person-centred activity schedule to help the residents lead rich and fulfilling lives. The best part of my day is seeing the residents get stuck in with the activities and looking at the smiles on their faces.

Life at Cadbury Hall Care Home
Cadbury Hall Open Day
It was a busy day at Cadbury Hall with an open day showing those potentially looking for care around our beautiful home. Our Head Chef, Rory and the hospitality team made a wonderful selection of cakes for our visitors and residents, there were many compliments about the food on offer. Residents enjoyed musical entertainment from The Note Warehouse it was such an enjoyable day.
New Activities Programme Launches
Cadbury Hall residents have had a great week enjoying the new activities programme from knitting to gardening and Tai Chi to games.
Cadbury Hall's Maintenance Manager, Paul is running the Gardening Club, we have lots of ideas for the garden and planting spring bulbs was a perfect place to start. Residents planted up daffodils which we hope to be in bloom for when we celebrate St David's Day on 1st March.
Christmas Day at Cadbury Hall
What a wonderful time everyone had at the first Christmas Day since Cadbury Hall opened. The hospitality team put on a delicious traditional Christmas lunch and after we all settled down to watch the first King's Speech. It was a day of laughs and everyone getting together.
Festive Evening
Cadbury Hall had such a lovely residents and family evening. There was festive food and drink, with lots of chatting and a wonderful opportunity for everyone to get to know each other.
