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
Cocktails and Canapes evening.
At our Cocktails and Canapes event for our wonderful residents, friends and family of the home, earlier on in the week, everyone had a truly lovely time...
We had the very sparkly Bee Chumley who was back in action in the garden, with her beautiful voice, as everyone was also treated to a glass of something delicious to drink and something equally delicious to nibble on, courtesy of our multi-talented Carer, Emma, who did an incredible job making the cocktails and also the canapes!
Take a look at some of our ever fabulous residents and their equally wonderful family & friends - We really do have some of the best people both here and supporting us at Kings Park and it was so nice to see you all enjoying time together with loved ones in our garden.
Thanks again to all who helped with this event and all who came.
Sheila's Birthday
We would like to wish the lovely Sheila many happy returns of the day for her birthday, which she celebrated today with her lovely family.
After which, she joined a group of our residents up in the cool Memory Lane dining room for some birthday shortbread making.
Everyone took it in turns to help and were also quick to sample their wonderfully created fayre, before also enjoying some of her delicious birthday cake too.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHEILA!
Minibus outing to Walford Mill Crafts
Our residents were out and abut recently, spending a little leisurely time down by the river...
Off they all went, with huge smiles, to investigate Walford Mill Crafts, before enjoying a spot of delicious lunch too.
It's amazing just how much a simple change of scene can benefit us all once in a while and our residents thoroughly enjoyed this special trip out.
Thank you, Claudia & Vivian for arranging this - They loved every moment of their day!
Kings Kids Fun!
Recently, up in our top floor lounge, the room was a hive a activity as we welcomed back the Kings Kids into our home...
This wonderful mother & baby group, which we started some time ago, brings so much fun and joy to our home, but especially for the residents who love engaging with them all.
Seeing how much all the little ones have grown in confidence since they first started coming to the home is amazing and the interactions between young and old is just beautiful to witness.
If you or anyone you know with little ones would like to come along to our weekly group, please get in touch for more information.
Eyes Down...
It was eyes down recently for the residents here at Kings Park, as everyone gathered for some BINGO fun...
There were some very intense looks of concentration on everyone's faces as everyone focused on the game in hand.
There was all to play for, with 'all' equalling some fudge, some shortbread and a beauty set!
HUGE CONGRATULATIONS to our Bingo winners: Gerry, Anne & Jean, who were all rather pleased with themselves and their wins!
New 'Pop-up' Art Exhibition
Next time you are in Ferndown, why not stop by here at Kings Park and come and view the new 'pop-up' art exhibition...

We have joined forces with the wonderful folk from Ferndown Arts Society, who have kindly brought in some of their wonderful pieces of art for everyone here in the home to view and enjoy.
