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.
Claudia Canosa
Claudia moved to the UK from her native South Africa with her family some 6 years ago, although her family are of Italian decent.
With a caring nature, Claudia worked for a domiciliary care company helping in people in the community before eventually working in a care home environment, working up to the role of Senior Carer.
Realising how much she enjoyed making the residents smile, Claudia has now stepped into the role of Activities Lead here at Kings Park and very much loves the interaction with our residents, who have all taken a real shine to her.
Claudia can regularly be seen with our residents in a very creative capacity, enjoying flower arranging or leading everyone in a game of good old fashioned Bingo!
When at home, Claudia is a mother to two boys and a girl and also a pet mum to the the gorgeous, Molly - a Jack Russell cross.
She loves nothing more than curling up on the sofa in front of a good rom/com, with: The Holiday, The Lakehouse and The Notebook as some of her favourites to date.
We are so happy to have her as part of the Kings Park team.

Happy Birthday Trisha!
Our lovely Trisha has had two parties to celebrate her birthday this year! One with her family last weekend and then one yesterday with us on her actual birthday.
We love welcoming Trisha’s dog, Jonty, when he comes to visit and he knows right where to go to see his mum!
Lunch with Smudge
We know dogs aren’t allowed at the table, but we make a special exception for Smudge as he is so loved by our residents on Memory Lane and always makes us all smile!
He often calms our residents as he loves to be stroked and he quietly barks his approval. One thing for sure though, he always delights everyone!
Cool Creature Teachers
Thankfully our air conditioning kept our recent visitors from The Creature Teachers cool and comfortable while their owner Lisa and her colleague Jade once again gave us so much information about every animal who came to see us!
Echo the beautiful Barn Owl delighted us as she showed her wing span and graceful glide. We also met Sunshine the ferret and her friend, a millipede, an albino corn snake and Marjory the very cute guinea pig.
Residents and the Team were mesmerised by the animals and also by all the fun facts and stories that Lisa told us. We all so look forward to their visits as it is always exciting and interesting!
