Activities at Kingsland House Care Home
Kingsland House have a variety of activities that our residents help us choose. Celebrating Life in our home is jovial and fun and from our weekly delivered activity sheet, our residents can chose exactly what they want to join in with.
Our activities range from exercise classes, gardening, arts and crafts, games to food-fun clubs. We also offer our in house church services, our own home cinema, our mobile pub - The Kingsland Tavern, visiting Pat Dogs, musical entertainers, minibus outings, theme days and birthday celebrations. For those residents being nursed in their rooms we have one to one activities sessions.
At Kingsland House we believe that activities are hugely important to stimulate and uplift, and getting to know our residents interests and lifestyle choices assist our activities team in creating events and activities to suit their expressed wishes and capabilities. We also encourage our residents' families and friends to join in with as much as they can to make Kingsland House a loving family atmosphere.
Mo Clark
I've been at Kingsland House as the Activities Coordinator since April 2024 having previously worked in a similar role since 2020.
My previous experience has been in working as a carer and air bnb host, corporate finance and project management for many years. This is my most rewarding role to date and I am passionate about working with the elderly.
I love the variety of each day, getting to know and share in the lives of our residents. The commitment and support of Barchester enables us to deliver activities and outings that go above and beyond to support and celebrate life which makes the difference to our residents wellbeing and happiness.

Life at Kingsland House Care Home
Honouring Remembrance Sunday
We were proud and moved to honour those that fought for our freedom – ‘Lest We Forget’
Indoor Tennis Club is a Roaring Success
Here at Kingsland House, we have introduced an ‘indoor tennis club’ and we can’t quite believe how popular it has become. Residents now have to wait their turn to play a game or two of tennis as we have fun, laughter and not forgetting, exercise.
Getting Ready for Halloween
A wonderful day was had when residents headed off to purchase pumpkins for Halloween. One resident said she felt overjoyed to be visiting shops again. We can't wait to make some lovely displays for our home.
'Alex the Voice' visits Kingsland House
Today we had a visit from ‘Alex the Voice’ to charm us with his Rat Pack style of singing. Our residents love the opportunity to sing along and to get on the dance floor and ‘show their moves’ and it certainly acts as a great exercise class too!
Ten Pin Bowling
Our residents can get very competitive when we play Ten Pin Bowling but it always puts a big smile on our faces as well. This activity stimulates the mind, body and soul and certainly lifts our spirits!
Arts & Crafts Class to see in the Autumnal Colours
As the season is changing to Autumn we wanted to create an Autumnal Theme in our Arts & Crafts Class and had great fun with some leaf painting.
