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
Sports Day Fun
Roll on the Olympics! #RedNoseDay at Hempton Field was a fun with a sports day themed party, full of games including armchair footie and lounge volley ball.
Our residents relaxed the afternoon away with a well-deserved pot of tea and yummy strawberry cream cupcakes.
St Patrick's Day
“May the luck of the Irish enfold you. May the blessings of Saint Patrick behold you” - Irish Proverb
Today our residents enjoyed all things Irish! We had a proper giggle, dressing up ‘particularly laughing at Nina our activities lead in her outfit’. It was so good, some of our ladies couldn't wait to try it for themselves! We enjoyed the 'craic' with an Irish inspired quiz, a jig to Irish music and plenty of traditional Irish food.
Mothering Sunday
On Mother's Day our beautiful ladies enjoyed a wonderful 3-course lunch followed by afternoon 'champagne' tea. Each were delighted to receive a little gift care of the home; their choice of homemade soap, lovingly crafted by local lady

Congratulations on 20-years Long Service
This week our general manager, Sharon had the privilege of presenting two members of our care team with their prestigious Long Service Awards in celebration of working at Barchester Healthcare for 20 years each.
Both local Chinnor ladies; Sally Boult, has worked at Hempton Field for the last 20 years and loves every minute of it. Sally has progressed in the home from Carer to Senior Carer and onto Infection Control Ambassador for the home. Sally was an integral part of our success in our recent infection control inspection by CQC.
Tracy Dodds, started as a Bank employee to be able to work around her young children and family. Initially unsure a career in care was right for her, Tracy soon became part of the Hempton Field family as she developed lasting friendships with our residents, and her colleagues. She loves her job and is a highly valued member of the team.
“We’re delighted to be celebrating a cumulative 40 years of loyal service with these two amazing ladies. They have demonstrated their dedication and loyalty to this home and its residents year after year.” Congratulations ladies!
Gift of Kindness and Thanks
It is always a pleasure to receive recognition of quality 'care' and so uplifting for the whole team. This week we received a beautiful hamper of goodies from a recent respite resident; the wonderful Beryl Taylor.
THANK YOU so much Beryl, we look forward to seeing you at Hempton Field again, whenever you fancy.
World Day Of Prayer
On the 5th March we enjoyed a beautiful service via zoom joining up with others in the community to celebrate World Day Of Prayer; a women led, global, ecumenical movement.
This year was prepared by the Christian women of Vanuatu which is an island southwestern Pacific Ocean just over 1,100 miles to the east of Australia.
We enjoyed listening to stories from Vanuatu, we joined in with songs and prayer, then enjoyed a group discussion with coffee and traditional coconut cake made by Margaret Poole who had the recipe!
