Activities at Hempton Field Care Home
Activities are an integral part of life at our care home. We want to ensure that the people we support have as much fun as possible during their time with us, so it’s important that our activities programme is created with the interests of residents in mind. Our skilled Activities Coordinators bring a certain uniqueness to the home that can’t be found anywhere else, and which is reflected in the activities they organise.

Life at Hempton Field Care Home
Festive Monopoly
This week we gathered in the dining room and had some festive fun while playing a game of Christmas monopoly! A great way to spend a chilly winter afternoon with friends.
A Visit from Zoolab!
The team at Zoolab brought lots of animals in for our residents to meet and learn about!
Zoolab hold Animal Therapy sessions which promote mental wellbeing and help individuals get in touch with their senses, as well as discovering the sights and sounds of the Tropics!
Our residents thoroughly enjoyed their visit learning about and holding the creepy crawlies. Mabel was reluctant at first to interact with the snake, however, was extremely chuffed with herself after building up the courage to say hello!
Remembrance Day
Our residents spent time last week putting together our Armistice Day display and sharing memories. Residents and staff came together and watched the Remembrance Day Parade on Sunday in London.
Scarecrow Trail
We were delighted to be involved with the Chinnor Scarecrow Trail to raise money for Chinnor Christian Aid. Everyone involved in the trail designed their own unique scarecrows to be placed around the village. The scarecrow we chose to create was the nostalgic and lovable Worzel Gummidge!
This year Chinnor Christian Aid continues to support its global neighbours as they deal with the devastating effects of the unprecedented flooding in Pakistan. The scarecrow trail was able to raise an amazing £1020!
Monopoly Afternoon
It was back to Old Kent Road this week at Hempton Field with an afternoon of playing Monopoly! One of our ladies, Mabel, found it particularly funny when she picked a Community Chest card and won the Beauty Contest! The overall winner was Meg who had an amazing game, collected lots of money and owned majority of the properties on the board!
Carpet Bowls
We have a new Carpet Bowls Champion!
Carpet Bowls is one of our most popular activities for our residents, and they all love coming together to play and cheer each other on. Beryl was delighted to win this month and gets to proudly display her trophy in her room!
We are looking forward to seeing if Beryl can keep her title, or if someone else will be the Champion next month!
