Activities at Chacombe Park Care Home
We understand that the people we support have passions and interests that could be difficult to pursue after moving into a care home – but that doesn’t mean we don’t encourage them to try! Some hobbies can define a person, so our Activities Coordinators are dedicated to ensuring that everyone we support is able to do what makes them happy to the best of their abilities. Social events are organised with individual tastes in mind and with the idea that residents have the opportunity to try new and exciting things.

Life at Chacombe Park Care Home
Carols, Birthdays and a trip to the Local!
What a busy week we've had in the run up to Christmas! On Tuesday the super talented children from Chacombe CEVA Primary Academy visited our residents to perform their Christmas Carol concert.
We also had birthday celebrations for some of our residents and today, we took a few residents to the local The George and Dragon Chacombe pub for a fantastic lunch with wine and beers all round!
Christmas Trip to Blenheim
Staff and residents were mesmerised by the lights on a recent visit to the beautiful Blenheim Palace at Christmas.
The Oxfordshire UNESCO World Heritage Site has been beautifully decorated for Christmas so that visitors can enjoy all the rich history and splendour that Blenheim Palace has to offer with the added festive fun of the palace ‘Neverland’, Great Court ice-rink and magical Light Trail and Christmas market.
Firmly positioned as one of the UK’s leading illuminated trails, as the residents of Chacombe Park meandered through the trail their faces, and smiles beamed as bright as the lights! Resident; Barbara was simply blown away with the illuminated displays saying ‘it was a truly wonderful experience’.
General Manager, Shaju Paul, said: “Today’s Christmas minibus trip to Blenheim Palace was an enchanted experience for all involved. Our residents adored the lights and have returned with grand designs planned for our homes extensive gardens next year!”.
Jazz and Christmas Jumpers
The festive season continues at our home with our residents and staff celebrating Christmas jumper day! The residents had an amazing time with festive food and live jazz music from Alan who sang some Christmas classics.
Dementia choir at Winchester House
At Chacombe Park that's what we like to do - create memories, stay connected to the local community and ensure our residents are leading full enriched lives.
Today was the last day of our Dementia choir at Winchester house school until next year. It was a joyful one with lots of wonderful Christmas Carols, lots of festive food and mulled wine! The residents also received a Christmas gift!
Birthday and Boogies
This week at our home, we have been getting into the festive season, we celebrated a residents Birthday and also had live entertainment courtesy of the talented Vintage Ruby who graced us with her soulful melodies.
The live music proved very popular with residents and family members with them dancing around to "Dancing around the Christmas tree" as well as other Christmas classics!
Getting Festive
The festive season is fast approaching so it was a team effort to get the Christmas vibes going with a few of the residents having a wonderful time decorating the Christmas tree and adding a splash of colour to the home!
