Activities at Hilton Park Care Home

Activities are the cornerstone of a wholesome home experience and our Activities Coordinators are always putting their creative minds to the test by organising new and exciting social events for residents to partake in. Of course, we take into account the likes and dislikes of those we support, so if someone doesn’t feel like trying something new, there will always be something on offer to reflect their personal interests. For the people who may just prefer some peace and quiet instead, we also offer one-to-one time that can be enjoyed with a nice cup of coffee or just a simple chat – whatever they desire.

Jenelyn Szabo

Activity Coordinator

Hello, my name is Jenelyn and I am the head of activities here at Hilton Park.

Having started my Barchester journey as a carer back in 2019, I have gained good experience of working closely with our residents. After being a carer I then moved onto the Activities team and thoroughly enjoyed working as an Activities co-ordinator, which led to my promotion to Activity Lead.

Nothing makes me happier than seeing the smiles on our residents faces.

Happy Birthday John!!

Today, our dear resident John celebrated his special day surrounded by his beloved family. It was heartwarming to see the joy on his face as he spent time with his grandchildren, who were delighted by the amazing magician organized by his loving son.

We would like to extend our warmest wishes to John for a truly happy birthday. May your day be filled with love, laughter, and all the things that bring you happiness. From all of us here at Hilton Park, we hope your special day is as wonderful as you are!

Happy Mothers Day

Happy Mother's Day!!

On this special occasion, we joyfully celebrated Mother's Day with live music performed by the talented Liz Monroe. We indulged in scrumptious cakes, aromatic tea and coffee, and the finest white and red wine while enjoying a delicious selection of fruits. We also held an exciting raffle to further enhance the festivities. As we recognize the significance of this day, our aim was to create a memorable experience for each and every one of our guests. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the families who joined us today and to Emma, our dedicated volunteer who helped ensure everything ran smoothly.

Making Dreams come true

Betty's dream came true today. Accompanied by her wonderful fellow residents, Monica and Jaqui, we journeyed to Ely Cathedral. Betty was filled with tales and memories of this beautiful place, and she couldn't wait to sit down at the grand piano once more.

Happy Birthday Marions 104yrs young!

Today was an incredibly special day as we celebrated Marion's 104th birthday! To make it even more memorable, we invited the talented The Banjo Man to entertain our families and residents. Our activities team's daughters surprised us all with a wonderful dance performance, featuring the talented children Amy and Eljay, which brought smiles to everyone's faces. We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to the All Saints' CEVA Primary School, Newmarket children who made beautiful birthday cards for Marion, which she cherished dearly. To top it all off, our amazing Chef Anthony baked a homemade cake for Marion and her family to enjoy. We are grateful to our dedicated staff who worked tirelessly to make Marion's birthday a truly special occasion. Happy Birthday, Marion, and here's to many more happy years ahead.

Health and Wellbeing!

Within Barchester we have focused on giving our residents a healthy and positive lifestyle. We came together to listen to a short talk hosted by our Manager, Geanina. Our chef also participated by giving a short talk about nutrition. Our wellbeing champion, Anna, and the Activity team led some light exercise and singing, followed by the healthy, fresh snacks prepared by our very own chef, Anthony, for all to enjoy.
