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
Grandparents Day
This was an educational and fun afternoon; we all learnt new things about various insects and animals. Some residents loved being able to hold and touch the creatures, whilst others preferred to watch on from a distance. We were joined by friends and families – big and small – who all enjoyed celebrating the day.
Flower Arranging Competition
We had a lot of fun making and designing our pumpkin entries for the flower arranging competition. Throughout the afternoon, people came along to judge their favourite display. Congratulations to Heather, who was crowned as our winner!
Remembrance Display
Residents have loved getting stuck in to help create something special for Remembrance Day. We are all looking forward to seeing the finished creation out on display.
We are now 10-60-06 accredited!
Chacombe Park has achieved accreditation for a new standard of dementia care, which was developed by dementia care specialists at Barchester.
The 10-60-06 dementia programme will replace Barchester's current dementia care programme in order to ensure that the care services provided by our Memory Lane communities for people living with dementia are the best in the sector.
A huge well done to all of the staff, residents & families who have been involved in the journey to reach accreditation.
Harvest Festival
We got involved in a singalong with Tristan Pate in celebration of Harvest Festival. We also baked some bread and collected donations for the local food bank.
Reminiscence Afternoon
We had the pleasure of being joined by volunteers from the British Motor Museum in Gaydon. They brought along a vast range of memorabilia for us to have a look at, which sparked many memories and conversations about old cars that everyone used to own. It was a fantastic session!
