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
Body and Soul motivation
Our residents at Hall Park really enjoy their monthly session with Ann, from Motivation and Co. Ann provides fun games, quizzes, sing along and gentle exercises during this popular group activity. Ann is a fantastic entertainer who always makes our residents smile and they look forward to her sessions.
Virtual Tour of Mayfair
Residents across our services had a fantastic time joining Mandy Morrow for a virtual walking tour to learn about the ‘Herstory’ of Mayfair. The Mayfair of Nightingales may be long gone but it still holds a 20th century charm. Birthplace to the late Queen Elizabeth II, home to one of WWII's most decorated female war heroes and a tale of a wealthy Aristocrat and one of France's favourite designers.
We were delighted to take a walk down memory lane and discover stories from one of London's most iconic areas. The experience was truly enjoyed by all.
Resident realises dream
Susan, a resident at Hall Park care home in Nottingham, had always wanted to join a choir and sing in a concert, so staff at the home made her wish a reality. What’s more, it wasn’t just any choir! Susan joined and performed with Our Dementia Choir, the choir founded by Vicky McClure as part of a BBC One documentary back in 2018.
Susan has lived at Hall Park for just under 2 years and is beloved by staff and residents alike. Staff at the home were delighted to be a part of making her dream come true, as they knew how much it meant to her, and they all wanted to be there to see the smile on Susan’s face when she got to perform.
Serving Up for Wimbledon
Wimbledon is here!
To celebrate Britain's favourite Summer sport, at Hall Park we enjoyed watching the tennis on TV and playing our own version balloon tennis, all finished off with a lovely glass of fruity Pimms punch, and of course strawberries and cream.
Our residents Lilla and Doreen fully enjoyed prepping the ingredients for the punch and cutting the strawberries to share out with our residents. A great time was had by everyone!
Glenda's Haircut Wish
Every day at Hall Park we have a ‘resident of the day’ where the staff focus on the residents clinical care, also the day gives our residents a chance to feel special. For instance, they are asked about any wishes or ambitions from activities team and are treated to a special meal of their choice by the homes chef!
Glenda asked for a haircut at the barbers, so Natasha from the activities team took her into Bulwell to ‘Dana’s Barber Shop’ and as you can see from Glenda’s big smile she was so happy with her haircut!
Sunshine Garden Visit
We had the pleasure of enjoying a beautiful sunny day at Bulwell Forest Gardens, where we enjoyed a lovely walk around the gardens and a freshly cooked meal with produce grown in the gardens.
Residents Lorna and Dorothy were in their element while looking at the different areas of the gardens, such as the medicinal section where we picked some herbs to take back to our kitchen for the chef to use.
Thank you to the cook Riza and all the volunteers for such a lovely meal. Again everyone cleared their plates and fully enjoyed their food!
