Activities at Hethersett Hall Care Home
Activities, hobbies and interests make up the most important part of our days and who we are as people. We provide a varied activities programme that reflects the interests and capabilities of all the individuals we support. All of the group and individual activities are designed to not only mentally and physically stimulate the people we care for, but to enhance their life skills and feelings of purpose and self-worth. We achieve this through a constantly updated activities programme and one-to-one sessions with residents that are tailored to suit individuals needs. We also offer a range of outings in our mini-bus.
Caroline Evans
Hi, I’m Caroline Evans and I’ve been at Hethersett Hall for 7 years now and been in the care sector for 13 years and believed it was time for a change in my career at Barchester.
I’m extremely motivated for my new role as activities coordinator. I hope I will bring joy and fun to everyone’s daily lives. I am a highly active and bubbly person. Looking after other people has always been my priority and I will do my best every day to make sure everyone is happy, safe and smiling.
I look forward to meeting you and hope you will all join in the events and activities that I will bring to Hethersett Hall.

Life at Hethersett Hall Care Home
Hethersett Hall residents take the gold!
This week, activities staff introduced the residents to the world of gaming on the “WII”. The residents in Memory Lane thoroughly enjoyed taking part in WII sport championships such as swimming and trampolining! One lady said; “she could play all day long!”
Keeping in touch
Our residents love to receive regular visits from their family, friends and Little Visitors from Friend in Deed. However at this difficult time we have been relying on Skype/FaceTime calls to maintain contact with the special people in our resident’s lives. We have a timetable in place to ensure each resident has regular contact with their family and friends. As always, the staff of Hethersett Hall are doing all they can to ensure the residents are happy and healthy. Video calls have also been a great learning aspect for residents too, expanding their knowledge on the wonder of technology.
Giant Scrabble
The residents of Hethersett Hall thoroughly enjoy having a giant game of scrabble in our South Wing lounge. They like to play individually or in small teams which is a great opportunity to interact with one another, enhancing existing friendships and creating new ones. This activity provides great stimulus to meet intellectual and social needs.
EGG-tremely creative artwork!
Over the Easter weekend, we had a morning of painting Easter eggs of different shapes and sizes, cute little chicks and beautiful butterflies as part of our Easter display. Residents enjoyed engaging in conversation whilst taking part and they felt very proud of the colourful picture which we hung on the wall for everyone to enjoy!
In the afternoon everyone enjoyed a pleasant walk around the garden hunting for Easter eggs which went down lovely with a cup of tea!
Easter Activities and beautiful weather!
Easter has been a little different this year but our lovely staff and residents have been in good spirits! Residents were keeping busy decorating our Easter tree whilst enjoying the sunshine in the courtyard. Great work everyone!
The Purrrrr-fect companion!
Our residents of Memory Lane thoroughly enjoy the company of robotic cats. They love cuddles which brings our residents lots of smiles and great comfort.
