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
Sensory Art Workshop
We have been creating wonderful flower displays recently at our craft club. Instead of traditional flower arranging, we created vases on cardboard before adding our flowers to them. Residents were able to choose from various bunches of flowers to create their displays, sharing fond memories and favourite flowers together.
Butterfly Farm
We had a lovely morning visiting the butterfly farm in Stratford-upon-Avon. Residents learnt about all the different species of butterflies there and where they are native to, and even managed to attract the butterflies to land on them. A fabulous time was had by all.
Cotswold Wildlife Park
We have had a fabulous day out exploring Cotswold Wildlife Park, seeing all the animals, having a wild walk with the lemurs from Madagascar and there was a new addition to the park, a baby rhino called Queenie.
We enjoyed a delicious picnic lunch and late afternoon ice creams in the glorious spring sunshine.
He's Behind You!
Residents were treated to a wonderful performance of Robin Hood and his merry band pantomime, brought to us from The Oxford Playhouse.
Team members set up the room to create a theatre experience at home on the big screen. Residents were able to enjoy theatre snacks delivered by the usher and had a wonderful afternoon participating and joining in with the performance from sing a longs to the classic 'He's behind you!'
Afternoon Tea on the Hill
We visited one of our favourite spots in Avon Dasset Country Park were residents enjoyed afternoon tea, delicious scones and hot drinks, whilst watching the world go by. Staff and residents admired the marvellous views, seeing the children playing and kites being flown in the wind upon the hill, which brought back wonderful memories of days gone by.
Winters Picnic
Who'd have thought we'd be having a picnic in the middle of January! Residents had a wonderful afternoon enjoying the glorious winters sun, listening to the sounds of the birds chirping and indulging in a delicious picnic by the pond.
