Activities at Hafan-Y-Coed 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 Hafan-Y-Coed Care Home
A Day in Spain
We chose Spain as our country of the moth. We have explored the culture, music and food. Team members dressed as Spanish waiters, danced and sang to Spanish music and finished the day with an afternoon themed quiz. The residents had a great time.
20 Years of Hair Styling and Chatting
Tracy has been the Hafan-Y-Coed hair dresser for over 20 years. She is wonderful with the residents and they all enjoy their visits to the inhouse salon. Today Jean really enjoyed being pampered.
Rock n Roll
Residents had a fun afternoon enjoying some rock and roll classics including a full dance to Reet Petite. The upbeat music led to a fabulous sing a long, what a fun afternoon.
I'm in the Mood for Dancing!
There was a fabulous afternoon of music from John Baker accompanied by our very own dancers, Sue and Clare. The entertainment was booked to mark one residents 80th Birthday and she had a wonderful time as did all the residents who sang along. A great start to the new year, the first of many celebrations.
Pamper Morning
There was a lovely pamper morning for some of our beautiful ladies with Amy-Leigh adding some glamour ready for the first live entertainment of the year.
National Milkshake Day!
Hafan-Y-Coed residents visited lodcal dairy Llaeth Beynon to purchase a variety of milkshakes from their vending machine for National Milkshake Day. It was a lovely morning trip out followed by an afternoon of tasting. There will definitely be milkshake tasting again this year!
