Activities at Hafan-Y-Coed Care Home

We understand that the people we support have passions and interests that could be difficult to pursue after moving into a care home – but that doesn’t mean we don’t encourage them to try! Some hobbies can define a person, so our Activities Coordinators are dedicated to ensuring that everyone we support is able to do what makes them happy to the best of their abilities. Social events are organised with individual tastes in mind and with the idea that residents have the opportunity to try new and exciting things.

Our 'Santa's Workshop' Float

We decided to showcase Hafan Y Coed in our very own Float with a Santa’s workshop theme in this year’s town Christmas Carnival. Residents and staff came up with the theme and all helped create the final result.

Pumpkins!

We have enjoyed a range of activities in keeping with our Autumn theme. We have been sewing Pumpkin soft decorations, visiting pumpkin farms and flower arranging with Pumpkins! Who knew there were so many things you could do with Pumpkins?

Oktoberfest at Hafan Y Coed

We enjoyed a fun filled Oktoberfest themed quiz night. Complete with German fancy dress, German Beer, German foods and music. A great evening was had by all!

Sports Day

We recently enjoyed our summer sports day and welcomed staff, residents and families to join in the fun. The egg and spoon race, sack race and relay were some of the races everyone took part in and the residents favourite was the tug of war race when the rope snapped, they found it hilarious
