Activities at Kings Park Care Home
Activities are an integral part of life at our care home. We want to ensure that the people we support have as much fun as possible during their time with us, so it’s important that our activities programme is created with the interests of residents in mind. Our skilled Activities Coordinators bring a certain uniqueness to the home that can’t be found anywhere else, and which is reflected in the activities they organise.

Life at Kings Park Care Home
62 Glorious Years!
Kings Park were celebrating with one lovely couple recently...
Sixty-two years ago, the fabulous Peter & Val, (both residents here at Kings Park), both stood at the alter and said: 'I do', so we felt this definitely needs a celebration!
Our wonderful Head Chef, Wynn, made the couple a delicious chocolate cake to celebrate and in true Wynn fashion, it tasted REALLY good!
Val & Peter were delighted with all the cards they received from family & friends, as well as a very special card from all of the Kings Park staff - It even had their names on the front.
What was really lovely, was that as they were opening their cards together, there was obviously another lovely couple who must had wed too, as the church bells were pealing loudly outside!
CONGRATULATIONS to you both - Here's to many more years together!
Put on Your Dancing Shoes...
Nick Sellers was front and centre for a recent morning's activity and EVERYONE loved it...
After a slow start, it wasn't long before our fabulous resident, Eric, was the first among us to get up and dance - and dance he did!
With Eric off and dancing, he was soon encouraging others to join him, so everyone was having a boogie in one way or another; the passing staff also were drawn in for a wiggle and a sing too!
The morning was pure joy from start to finish and what a wonderful feeling it has left in the home in its aftermath!
HUGE Thanks go to Nick and of course, Eric, for the most wonderful feelgood session. Also to the lovely Kayla & Chloe from Ferndown Upper School who were brilliant at engaging and dancing with everyone - Thanks girls!!!
Famous Faces...
Up on our Memory Lane floor residents recently enjoyed a wonderful reminiscence session taking them back to yesteryear...
The residents were shown images of some very faces folk, including that of Audrey Hepburn, John Wayne, Marilyn Monroe and even more recent faces such as David Beckham were thrown into the mix.
This sparked some wonderful conversations amongst our residents as they recalled their own personal memories of these famous faces from stage, screen and the world of sport.
What a wonderful session this was!
Mary Berry, who?
Recently here at Kings Park, some of our residents washed their hands, rolled up their sleeves and donned their aprons as they cooked up some delicious home-made treats for us all...
Who needs Paul Hollywood or Mary Berry, when we have our very own versions of them here in the home.
After an afternoon of mixing and making, the end results were better than any technical make in the Bake Off tent, as everyone was impressed with their delicious jammy biscuits.
Well done, Bakers - You have done us proud!
Swinging Sinatra
We recently welcomed the fabulous Swinging Sinatra into our home...
There's nothing our residents love more than coming together over their mutual enjoyment for the music of yesteryear and Swinging Sinatra did NOT disappoint!
Residents from all floors sang and danced along in a wonderful session of music and reminiscence.
What a joyous occasion for us all!
A Song and a Dance...
Here at Kings Park recently, there was every reason in the world to make a 'song & dance about it'...
Our residents love nothing more than celebrating life - Just because they can!
With a joyous session of singing and dancing, just take a look at the fun that they have here in our home! Doesn't it make you smile?
