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
Mexican Independence Day
We celebrated Mexican Independence day on Monday.
It was a great excuse to have a fiesta with Mexican food provided by our chef. We enjoyed music and took a Spanish class. There were plenty of decorations, Mexican hats and lots of laughter.
Varied cultural traditions, language and experiences are the foundations upon which we build our identity. Through promoting this in our home we'll have a positive impact on our own health and well-being as well as the people we care for.
Summer BBQ & Pudding Club
Today was the day of our summer BBQ and we had a fantastic day, we were so lucky with the weather too. Friends and family joined residents and staff to enjoy the sunshine.
Our Activities Team is dedicated to ensuring that we organise events that encourage our residents to host their families and friends at Cadbury Hall. Our home is always to open to loved ones who wish to take part in our life enrichment program.
Thank you to everyone who came to support our lovely home and residents. It was lovely meeting everyone. A massive thank you to our amazing team; here at Cadbury our staff go above and beyond to bring our residents as much joy as possible.

Tea With A Pony
We had an amazing morning over at Little Grace Riding Stables with the Claverham & Winford RDA.
Tea With A Pony was a massive success, and we can not thank their volunteers enough. Our lovely resident June used to own and train horses in her day so this was a real treat. June is losing her sight, so to be able to touch and smell the ponies made her so happy.
At Cadbury Hall, that's what we like to do, create memories, and ensure our residents are leading full enriched lives.
Gardening with Paul
Paul is a very familiar face around the home, designated driver, maintenance man and head gardener. He really is the go to man. Paul encourages residents to join him in the garden when the weathers nice, to help with planting, weeding and passing on any tips that they might have. It is a lovely way to spend a sunny afternoon, reminiscing and socialising with each other. Our garden is looking lovely and hopefully will be producing vegetables soon.
Carers Week
We always appreciate the hard work and dedication shown to us by our amazing care team. In honour of carers week we had a pizza night for the team with gifts of chocolates and sweets which went down a treat. We have a great team here at Cadbury who support the residents and each other, we have a whole home approach that everyone takes in their stride, ensuring the best possible care standards for our residents.
Father's Day at Cadbury
We cherish our fathers at Cadbury, be it staff or residents. Our lovely manager Audrene picked out special personalised gifts for every father who was with us on the day. Andrew loved gardening so a special garden gift set bought a lovely smile to his face. Everyone enjoyed a buffet banquet afternoon tea prepared by our talented head chef. Everyone had a great day finished off with a film chosen by the gents.
