Activities at Harper Fields Care Home
There is always something to do here at Harper Fields and always someone to assist the residents in any activity they wish to take part in. We have entertainers come into the home to sing and play instruments on a weekly basis, as well as visits from PAT dogs, hairdressers, massage therapists and nail technicians to pamper those who live here. Residents' spiritual needs are taken into account at Harper Fields; we have regular services from the Catholic and Methodist church, in addition to the Church of England, and for our non-religious residents, we have a weekly calming and peaceful ‘mindfulness and meditation group,’ which is very popular, especially for those living with dementia. Residents often like to attend cinema evenings to watch their favourite films on the big screen (complete with sweets and popcorn), or develop new skills at our computer classes, where they can learn how to Skype their families in other countries. Our activities are tailored to suit the individual interests and capabilities of residents and our specialised equipment enables those we support to enjoy everything we have to offer.

Life at Harper Fields Care Home
Barchester 'Baton' Celebrations
Barchester Baton was handed over along with a party at one of our sister homes. John Farringdon aged 109 this year has the honour of transferring the Queen’s official Commonwealth baton on its 10 day relay countdown as it passes through Kenilworth to Birmingham.
Cheese & Wine Event Proved Popular
Once of the events the NCS young people arranged was a cheese & wine afternoon with a cheeky ‘golden oldies’ quiz to enjoy as well. There were smiles all round!
Volunteers Being Creative & Working Hard
National Citizenship Service project with young people volunteering their time has been a huge success. We really have had a ball with the students, they have been so friendly, hardworking and a delight to have in our home, we hope to see them all again soon.
Our Volunteers
We have a wonderful team of staff at Harper Fields, it does not stop there. We have a few volunteers that enjoy every second of making our residents day enjoyable. We are always on the look out for new volunteers so do not hesitate to get in touch if you are interested.
Sunday Movie
Residents in our Nursing community were treated to an afternoon movie with the support of care team, popcorn and ice cream were on the menu for all. What a wonderful way to enjoy an afternoon!
Archery
Take a look at this fun. We are extremely lucky at Harper Fields to have a weekly visit from the lovely team at Sports for all who treated our residents to a new talent (using a bow and arrow) Activity coordinator Sharon struggled to keep up with the residents.
