Activities at Hethersett Hall Care Home

Activities, hobbies and interests make up the most important part of our days and who we are as people. We provide a varied activities programme that reflects the interests and capabilities of all the individuals we support. All of the group and individual activities are designed to not only mentally and physically stimulate the people we care for, but to enhance their life skills and feelings of purpose and self-worth. We achieve this through a constantly updated activities programme and one-to-one sessions with residents that are tailored to suit individuals needs. We also offer a range of outings in our mini-bus.

Caroline Evans

Activities Coordinator

Hi, I’m Caroline Evans and I’ve been at Hethersett Hall for 7 years now and been in the care sector for 13 years and believed it was time for a change in my career at Barchester.

I’m extremely motivated for my new role as activities coordinator. I hope I will bring joy and fun to everyone’s daily lives. I am a highly active and bubbly person. Looking after other people has always been my priority and I will do my best every day to make sure everyone is happy, safe and smiling.

I look forward to meeting you and hope you will all join in the events and activities that I will bring to Hethersett Hall.

Banham Zoo Trip

The residence at Hethersett Hall really enjoyed a day at Banham Zoo. Lots of smiles and excitement when they saw the animals, especially Jean Boast who really wanted to see the giraffes . Ryan bought her her own soft toy Giraffe as obviously she couldn’t fit a real one on the mini-bus.

Lunch was delicious sandwiches followed by tea and cool drinks.

Before everyone went home, we sampled wonderful ice cream …Last minute browsing in the shop where we bought souvenirs and went back on the mini-bus home.

Zoo Visit

 

This weeks big trip was a unanimous decision for a day out at the zoo, taking most of our Memory Lane residents, packing a picnic and ordering the rain to stay away for the day (which it did) we headed to Banham Zoo. 

Our residents loved seeing the variety of animals and after a few hours of walking around it was time for lunch of sandwiches and cakes galore!

Coffee and a Chat

Our first Memory Cafe was a roaring success at the hall recently.

We had a wonderful turnout of people who commented on how nice everyone was and especially enjoyed the coffee and cake!

50's Fete

Our summer fete kicked off in style on Saturday with live music from the rock and roll band Shake, Rattle and Roll singing all the classics!

The fete soon became busy with the bar and BBQ being the focal points throughout the day. We had fairground games: Hook the Duck, Splat the Rat, Striker, Tim Can Alley, Yo - Yos, Tiddly Winks and other games spread around the garden.

Quiz and Chips Night

We hosted a quiz and chips night at the home, we had bottles of bubbly and chocolates for the winners and runners up.
