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!

Life at Hall Park Care Home
St George's Day
In Honour of St George, patron saint of England, we dressed up for the occasion and enjoyed a delicious festive lunch, prepared by our talented chef, Charmaine
We spent some time learning about St George and had a patriotic sing along, singing our hearts out to some good old British songs such as roll out the barrel and the British Anthem
Mothers Day at Hall Park

Head chef prepared a fantastic Irish spread with. traditional Irish dishes such as boiled bacon, Irish stew, soda bread, colcannon and black pudding all washed down with Guinness or an Irish whiskey.
Historic Royal Palaces
Our residents were treated to a special virtual sensory storytelling session. Together with Art Historian Jon Sleigh and the Historic Royal Palaces community team, we explored several royal palaces through the theme of food, dining and celebration!
We enjoyed a fantastic taste-a-long experience from the comfort of our home, from Tudor treats to Stuart sweets. A lovely time was had by all.
Book Club Corner
Across our services, our residents had a lovely time joining Mark Piesing for an exciting virtual event to discuss his book ‘N-4 Down: The Hunt for The Arctic Airship Italia’.
Our residents were thrilled to find out more about the book and the fascinating story of the world-famous exploring airship Italia, returning from the North Pole on May 24, 1928. The airship was struck by a terrible storm and crashed somewhere over the Arctic ice, triggering the largest polar rescue mission in history.
The virtual book club experience was truly enjoyed by all.
Celebrating World Book Day
Staff and residents at Hall Park care home decided to host a discussion about residents’ favourite books, launch their very own monthly book club and had a audiobook session so everyone could get involved in World Book Day. The staff all came to work dressed up as characters from their favourite books, which all of our residents loved!
