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
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.

Chocolate Donation
Many thanks to John Lewis & Partners, Cambridge, for their incredibly kind donation of glorious chocolates. They will be enjoyed by staff and residents here at Hilton Park, Barchester. Chocolate for breakfast, anyone?!
Who is your Valentine?
February 14th is coming up fast! Our residents have been creating some wonderful decorative hearts for their loved ones.
Big Garden Bird Watch
We got out into our gardens with some residents to see what we could spot. We managed to tick off a robin, blackbird, sparrow, blue tit, magpie, collared dove, pigeon, great tit and a pheasant.
The Vaccine Arrives
We're happy to share the fantastic news that the first round of vaccinations have been given to our residents here at Hilton Park. It's was a highly successful and positive day; staff and management are exited and optimistic for the future.
International Flower Day
We had a very colourful day yesterday for International Flower Day; our married couple (pictured) were enjoying creating a variety of artistic flowers and looking at pictures from our Hilton Park gardens in bloom. We were unable to get out into the gardens at present, though we’re looking forward to getting out in the spring.
Words of Kindness
We received a fabulous hand-written letter from dear Charlie, (6-years-old) who reached out to us to ask if we had a nice Christmas and to let us know that he had a wonderful Christmas too.
Thank you, Charlie; the letter is greatly appreciated, and we hope you stay in touch, and one day you might be able to come in and see us all at Hilton Park.
