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.

What an amazing team and residents we have a t Hafan-Y-Coed.  Today they put on a nativity for all the other residents to enjoy.  It was lovely to take time out and remember the meaning of Christmas and also look back on our own nativity memories.  It was so enjoyable.
