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!

Natasha is the Activities Coordinator here at Hall Park. Natasha really enjoys her job as no two days are ever the same. The life enrichment and daily activities program aims to provide stimulation for the mind, body and soul by engaging with residents daily. We all love to use our imagination and here we encourage creative activities. We also have a minibus which is used weekly to take residents out to cafes, local beauty spots and day trips.

Life at Hall Park Care Home
Celebrating Black History Month
Our residents at Hall Park love to dance and what better way to celebrate ‘Black History Month’ with a dance session with our residents on Memory Lane.
Everyone got in full swing dancing to music from black artists such as Little Richard, Tutti Frutti and Let’s twist again.
Bulwell Riverside Community Choir
Everyone at Hall Park would like to send a big thank you to ‘Bulwell Riverside Community Choir’ for coming into the home and singing to our residents
Everyone fully enjoyed singing along to song like ABBA, Dancing Queen and in honour to Disney celebrating there 100th birthday they sang, 101 Dalmatians, Cruella De Vil which made our residents smile
World Mental Health Day
We celebrated World Mental Health Day in style this year by treating some of our residents to a spa experience with relaxing music.
Natasha and Fay gave the residents relaxing hand massages, as well as a make-up and nail care session for some of the ladies. We also did some facials, using our products donated from Julie and Ash, Daughter and Son-in-Law of our resident Pearl.
Resident Gwen said “it is the first time I have been given a facial, which was one of the best activities I've done at Hall Park” and she couldn’t stop laughing when we showed her the photo of herself with the bunny face mask on!
Natasha has agreed with the residents that she will do more spa activities in the future as she is a experienced Spa Therapist, and they all loved it so much.
Barchester Care Awards
Our staff and residents at Hall Park had a fantastic day watching the Barchester 2023 Care Awards and cheering on our nominees, Wayne and Jamie.
Jamie was nominated for Maintenance of the Year and Wayne was nominated for Garden of the Year. Both were Divisional Winners which is an amazing achievement, and got to travel to Manchester for the National Finals which was live-streamed to us at Hall Park, and we all got to watch and cheer them on! They unfortunately didn’t win this year but we are so proud of them both for getting nominated in their categories, and know they'll both work hard to achieve their nominations again next year!
You both are winners to us at Hall Park and we are so grateful for all the great work you do around the home and garden.
