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
The Scrabble Challenge Begins!
Residents had a lovely afternoon between Christmas and New Year's playing Scrabble and testing their spelling skills whilst Activities Coordinator, Hannah, was on hand with the dictionary.
Christmas Jumper Day
With the team spirit high, residents and staff loved the festive giggles and laughter throughout the day whilst wearing a very impressive selection of Christmas jumpers.
The Great Outdoors Made Magical
Late December residents of Chacombe Park experienced the magical winter wonder of the Christmas trail at Blenheim Palace.
Residents explored the scented Fire Garden - a circular carpet of dancing flames, adorned with lanterns, set against the backdrop of glittering ancient woodland outlined in Christmas colour that stretched high into the night sky. Santa Claus was present too, sitting in the boathouse, waving to all.
Residents then finished their winter's stroll with spiced cider, mulled wine or hot chocolate, whilst the aroma of roasting chestnuts filled the air.
Christmas Time at Chacombe
We had lots of fun at Chacombe over the Christmas period. The local Brownies came to entertain residents with Christmas carols, as did the bell ringers. We were also visited by a dance troupe, who put on a show for everybody.
St Andrew's Day
Chacombe Park residents and families were treated to an early celebration of St Andrew's Day for all to enjoy.
Lone bag pipe player, Richard Jasper, accompanied the amazing and talented local Scottish dance troupe, the Acushla Highland Dancers.
The celebration didn’t stop there, as delicious Scottish-themed cupcakes were served with refreshments along with an evening meal of haggis, neeps and tatties.
Wrapped up cosy with a nice glass of mulled wine!
Mulled wine, hot nibbles, and a wonderful display of fireworks were on the agenda for the residents of Chacombe Park who were celebrating bonfire night.
