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.
Read our brochure 'Life-enriching activities' for more information about life in our care homes.

Life at Kings Park Care Home
Happy 100th Birthday Stan!
All the team and residents of Kings Park would love to say a very Happy 100th Birthday to Stan!
We had a lovely afternoon party full of delicious treats and some favoured songs. Our Chef made a fantastic Strawberry Sponge, as Stan’s signature bake is a Victoria Sponge and everyone sang Happy Birthday!
Stan also has a big family celebration to look forward to tomorrow, some of whom have travelled from Canada for the special occasion!
We hope you have a lovely day tomorrow too Stan and thank you for celebrating with us.
Please join us in wishing Stan, a very very Happy 100th!
Kings Park Team Beat the Scrabble Master!
Starting off with ‘gnomes’ residents played a spellbinding game against the Scrabble Master himself and ended up winning by over 100 points!
Well done Team Kings Park!
Whilst playing we also devoured the third Victoria Sponge cake this week to say Happy Birthday to Ken!
Strawberry Sponge
We’re not quite sure if Kirsty was assisting the residents in the baking of this Strawberry Sponge or if the ladies and Eric were actually helping Kirsty!
Suffice to say though that everyone enjoyed the opportunity to bake a sponge and reminisce about the cakes we’ve made for our families and friends.
Oh and don’t tell Kirsty that when she went to wash the strawberries leaving us to whip up the cream, we actually sneaked it into the kitchen and asked our Chef to help us with the electric whisk!
Employee of the Month for April
Congratulations to Diana, our amazing Admin Assistant, who is our Employee of the Month for April!
Diana has only recently joined the Kings Park team but has made a significant impact with her friendly manner, hard work and friendly welcoming smile. Always happy to help residents, visitors and team members whilst also, somehow, managing to keep a clear and tidy desk!
Thank you Diana, from us all!
Mr Kelloggs Trots to Kings Park
They always say “Start your day with Kelloggs’ but Mr Kelloggs in the morning is certainly a more fun way to begin the day!
Look at all the happy smiles meeting Mr Kelloggs brings and he wasn’t shy to say ”Hello” to all our ’neigh’bours within our home!
Thank you to Linking Hearts therapy horses for your visit. Everyone enjoyed the gorgeous Mr Kelloggs!
VE Day
What a fantastic day we had at Kings Park for VE Day. The sun was shining and The Land Girls entertained us outside with some of our very favourite songs.
Pat helped us sort out our ‘Ration Menus’, although our actual lunch was far from being rationed! Residents showed some of our carers how the national flag is supposed to be hung and it was lovely seeing so many relatives and visitors coming to join in.
