Activities at Hunters 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.
Ben Sandall
Hello I am Ben and I am the Activities Coordinator at Hunters. I started working at Hunters as part of the hospitality team, but when a vacancy came up on the activities team I jumped at the opportunity. I have seen how important a varied activities programme is and the team ensure we offer something for everyone including regular past times.

Life at Hunters Care Home
Walks with Hawks
Walks with Hawks made a seasonal visit to Hunters with their entertaining and informative birds of prey display.
Santa's Visit
Santa made his annual visit to the residents of Hunters and stopped by residents' rooms with gifts of chocolates, sherry and mince pies to wish them a merry Christmas and a happy new year.
Christmas Party
Residents enjoyed a Christmas party with a delicious buffet lunch, music form Uke Box Jury, followed by sherry and mince pies to finish the afternoon off in style.
Memory Lane Christmas Party
We hosted a Christmas party for residents on our Memory Lane community. Sam and Ollie from the kitchen prepared and served a delicious buffet, and music was provided by guitarist, Steve, with Sheila on vocals. All the Christmas favourites and festive cheer was in plentiful supply and we rounded things off with mince pies and sherry.
Pia-Pia-Piano
Pianist, Kieran Pocock, got everyone in the festive spirit at Hunters with his Christmas show. Residents joined in with all of the Christmas classics, which got everyone in the Christmas mood.
Christmas Spirit
We got into the spirit of Christmas by putting some trees up around the home. Residents have been busy over the last few weeks making decorations during our arts & crafts sessions. The tree in reception has a unique and homely feel, as it was decorated entirely with handmade decorations.
