Activities at Atfield House 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 Atfield House Care Home
The Magic Table
Our new Magic Table 360 has just arrived at Atfield House and is already a hit with our residents. Designed especially for people living with dementia in mind, it is interactive and creative, offering a variety of fun activities, from playing the piano to star-gazing.
Martisor Spring has sprung
Spring is defiantly in the air. Residents learnt about a Romanian tradition where women receive handmade woven bands as a sign of respect and prosperity on the 1st week of spring. So everyone received some lovely daffodils with the same woven bands attached.
Magic table comes to life
Atfield House has recently brought a bit of magic to residents by providing a new ‘Magic Table 360 and the Happiness Programme’ as a way to improve residents’ quality of life. It can be projected onto almost any surface and has a range of sensory games and images to suit everyone. It is such a welcomed addition to our home.
Mayor Visits our virtual world
The Mayor of Hounslow took time from his busy schedule to join us via Zoom for a morning of tea, cake and a good old chat. He thanked the staff for their hard work and dedication and also spent time talking to the residents about life and what is happening in our borough. Everyone had a lovely time and we cant wait to welcome him back whether on Zoom or in person.
Love is in the air
Valentines is always a special time, staff make sure that everyone receives a special gift, lunch and has a chance to reminisce about times of their own love stories. This lovely couple celebrated a day of over 50 years of memories.
Chinese New Year Celebrations
Staff and residents at Atfield House in Isleworth welcomed in the Year of the Ox with a day of celebrations and activities.
