Activities at Hall Park Care Home
Our home is always full of life, and we can thank our wonderful Activities Coordinators for this. Dedication to creating a unique and interesting activities programme is what sets us apart from other homes. We always take into consideration that some people would prefer to pursue their own interests, which is why our team strive to incorporative activities that cater to a wide range of tastes and hobbies. Our trips out are always fun and exciting as well, and residents are guaranteed to return with stories to tell their loved ones!

They had a such a great time!
A keepsake hug for loved ones
We had family members come into the home in plain t-shirts, so residents could have their hands or arms painted and hugged their family members to have a memory T-shirt.
We had a family of 4 generations come in and do cards and t-shirts.
Some family members couldn't make it and we didn't want residents to miss out. We painted their hands and made printed cards for loved ones too.
All involved had a really good time.
Children in Need Celebrations
Our staff at Hall Park showed their support for Children in Need by wearing yellow and Pudsey outfits!
It was brilliant to partake in such a valuable event and raise money for such a good cause.
The team's dressing up also put a big smile on our residents faces.
King Charles' Birthday Celebrations
Our staff and residents celebrated King Charles' birthday and Remembrance Day at Hall Park Care Home.
Residents had a celebration with an afternoon tea that our head chef Samantha prepared. She also made homemade Victoria sponges and cream cakes to help with the celebration.
Also, we had Mark Two production come into the home. Kevin and Marie were absolutely fantastic and got residents laughing so much - you can see from the photos that they had a brilliant time.
They also interacted with the residents and had so many different costume changes.
The residents enjoyed it so much so, we have invited Kevin and Marie back to do new year celebrations.
Wear a Poppy with Pride
Remembrance Sunday is a day to commemorate the contribution of British and Commonwealth military and civilian servicemen and women in the two World Wars and later conflicts.
During the day, our residents enjoyed putting a remembrance display together, with their own handmade knitted poppies, which turned out beautifully.
We enjoyed watching the Remembrance Day ceremony to honour veterans and armed forces members who have died in the line of duty and we had a good old sing along to songs such as Vera Lynn's 'We'll Meet Again'.
It was a lovely day of remembrance, enjoyed by all.
Hall Park residents treated to pamper session
At Hall Park, it is important for us to cater to everyone’s needs within our activities and show person centred care, as not all of our residents like being in big group sessions,
So we do smaller groups and one to ones. Some of our ladies love to have a pamper session, where they can soak their feet in a foot spa and receive a relaxing foot massage and having a good old natter.
As you can see from our residents faces they really enjoyed themselves.
