Activities at Kingswood Court Care Home
Activities are the cornerstone of a wholesome home experience, and our Activities Coordinators are always putting their creative minds to the test by organising new and exciting social events for residents to partake in. Of course, we take into account the likes and dislikes of those we support, so if someone doesn’t feel like trying something new, there will always be something on offer to reflect their personal interests. For the people who may just prefer some peace and quiet instead, we also offer one-to-one time that can be enjoyed with a nice cup of coffee or just a simple chat – whatever they desire.
Sarah Walton
I have been working at Kingswood Court for 3 years, first as a carer and since 2022 as an activity coordinator.
I really enjoy making a difference to our residents’ life and organising events and activities for them. I like to involve the local community in events within the home. Activities at Kingswood Court are very varied: entertainers, singers, gentle exercise, arts and craft, outings, and so much more!

On D-Day anniversary, Kingswood Court celebrated the veterans and their families.

Residents then enjoyed a delicious lunch and celebrated with a party all afternoon.
Animals visit at Kingswood Court
We absolutely loved having Melissa over with all her little animals in the care home! Our residents enjoyed the company of a lamb, guinea pigs, mouse, lizards and more. Everyone loved stroking them and hearing about their story.
Our residents were surprised in their rooms with the animals and were totally smitten, wishing they could have kept them all!
Celebrating Cocktail Day
On Monday 13th May we celebrated International Cocktail Day with fruity mocktails and healthy smoothies in the lounge.
Ladies gathered to sip their favourite drinks and we had a lovely time chatting and reminiscing about our favourite drinks and places to enjoy them. It brought back memories from celebrations and holidays, it was lovely.
Kingswood Court celebrates VE Day
We had a lovely time celebrating VE Day on Wednesday 8th May! We celebrated by having a wonderful meal and delicious desserts and singing along to our favourite songs.
Vicar Richard Westcott delivered a wonderful speech, about dedication and hope. Our residents were delighted by the event and everybody had a wonderful time.
