Activities at Hagley Place Care Home
Activities plays a big part in the care we deliver to residents; activities staff are committed to organising a mix of activities and events for residents and the local community to get involved in, including trips out to local places of interest in our minibus and visits from entertainers and musicians. It is important to us that each individual who we support can get as much from these as possible, so we try our best to arrange activities that reflect their interests and capabilities as best as possible, and encourage them to participate in any way they can. We also encourage relatives to join in with activities and events as often as they can.
Mandy Hayward
I have a long background in the care industry and love to incorporate the outdoors in my activities. This role is very special as it allows me the time to get to know our residents and their families in a deeply personal way.

Life at Hagley Place Care Home
Church Coffee Shop
To kick start January and get away from post-Christmas blues, we took several of our residents out and about around Ludlow town to see the decorations before they were taken down. Stopping off at St Lawrence’s church for a community get together with other friends, complete with tea and cake.
Christmas Toy Drop
All the staff at Hagley Place worked hard Christmas 2023 to raise as many toys as possible for those children spending Christmas in hospital. Together with relatives and residents they were able to deliver a massive haul to Worcester Children’s Hospital just in time for Santa’s visit.
Thank you to all involved!
