Activities at Herne Place Care Home
Ensuring that our social events offer fun and adventure are a major focus of the ethos of our home; it’s important that those we support can enjoy an active and social lifestyle. Of course, there will always be those who prefer peace and quiet, and in these instances, a cup of tea and a chat is always be welcomed.
Sophie Glasgow
My name is Sophie, I am the Activities Coordinator here at Herne Place Care Home. It is my duty to ensure all residents feel happy and content. I love my job because I enjoy seeing our residents smiling and having fun on a daily basis.
I enjoy getting to know all of our residents on a one-to-one basis and in a group setting. This allows me to get to know their hobbies and ambitions as individuals, and fulfil these with life enriching activities they appreciate and will benefit from.
Activities and Events Partnerships
As part of our bespoke life-enrichment programmes, we host a number of live virtual events in the home on a regular basis through a number of partnerships with places of interest and world class performance companies

Minibus Trip to Herne Bay Seafront
We had a lovely trip to Herne Bay Seafront recently and our residents got to see the children on the pier crabbing, we was also admiring the old pier and reminiscing memories of when our residents used to visit the beach with their families.
Little Explorers
Our regular visits from the Little Explorers are something to look out for. Our residents and the children enjoy the intergenerational play that stimulates the mind, body and soul. These visits happen every 2 weeks, so come and join!
