Activities at Hugh Myddelton House 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.

Life at Hugh Myddelton House Care Home

Elf Day

Staff at Hugh Myddelton House swapped their uniforms for costumes on National Elf Day, on Friday 4th December, in an effort to raise funds to help people living with dementia.

Launched by the Alzheimer’s Society and delivered direct from the North Pole, Elf Day was created to sprinkle some festive cheer on fundraising towards finding a cure for dementia.

On the day, residents and staff at Hugh Myddelton were able to enjoy elf-themed games including Christmas quiz and Elf-bingo paired with a festive-themed spread as the team at the home donned their elfish apparel. The home managed to raise a total of £103 towards the cause.

Paper Chain of Kindness

Residents and staff at Hugh Myddelton have been very busy trying to make the world's longest paper chain filled with words of kindness for World Kindness Day. They were happy to have help from the local community and to display the paper chain of kindness around the home.
