Activities at Highfield 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.

Life at Highfield Care Home

Floral Masterclass with Kathryn Delve

Across our homes we had a fantastic time joining, Kathryn Delve, Master Florist, for a Valentine’s-inspired live virtual flower arranging demonstration. Kathryn shared brilliant and creative ways to decorate our tables with beautiful flowers that are sure to make your heart swoon!

Those participating in this virtual event put their skills to the test and followed along with some amazing creations of their own.  Residents truly enjoyed the experience.

Insight to our new build

We are thrilled to share an insight to our build journey with you as we look forward to our marketing suite opening soon!

At Highfield we believe every person should be treated as an individual, with personalised care provided in the very best surroundings.

That’s why our home has been designed with our residents’ comfort, well-being and happiness in mind.

We will have a stylish café, which will be stocked with delicious home-made treats and spa bathrooms for luxurious bath time experiences to a well-appointed hair salon for pamper sessions and sociable dining rooms, serving residents' favourite dishes.

Medical Detection Dogs

Across our services residents had a fantastic time during a special live virtual event, led by Emilia from Medical Detection Dogs. Emilia took us on a journey to discover how the organisation began training dogs to support people with complex health conditions, saving their lives on a daily basis.

Using their amazing sense of smell, these dogs can identify odour changes emitted prior an episode and alert the person to take preventative action.

We were introduced to the wonderful dogs and the science behind the sniff.  It was a delightful experience for everyone, especially our canine-loving residents.
