Activities at Claremont Parkway Care Home
Our teams are trained to enrich the lives of residents through stimulating the mind, body and soul, and taking the time to learn about each person to ensure everyone receives support that adds enrichment to their life.
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.

Life at Claremont Parkway Care Home
Indoor Fun and Games
Our residents love a competition!
Today it was 'Play Your Cards Right, and Pairs' plus a new game invented by Karen... 'Sun Hat Ping Pong'.
Both fun and challenging, the card games got all our minds working on probability, and the ping pong was great for hand-eye coordination... Such fun!
If your considering later life care for a loved one join us on Saturday 8th July 2023 for our Open Day and get a guided tour of our beautiful home, meet the Claremont Parkway team, and wonderful residents.
Call to book an appointment T.020 4533 8957 or pop in on the day.
Happy Birthday 'Jayne'
It was so wonderful to wish the happiest of birthdays to our Canadian Queen; Jayne with a vegan fruit rich Pavlova made especially for her by Chef Vera.
Your Claremont Parkway family hope you had the best of days, happy birthday lovely lady.
Sunny Days
The Claremont Parkway gardens are looking so inviting, with new furniture and plants, plenty of sun shades and paddling pools. Over the weekend our residents enjoyed catching some rays, chatting together and cooling their feet whilst trying to hook-a-duck or two!
We had freshly chilled Summer punch to keep them hydrated, and plenty of ice creams and lollys at the click of a finger to keep us all cool.
We look forward to seeing you at our Summer Fete on 22nd July 2023 'they'll be something fun for everyone'.
Glittering Performance
Mother & daughter duo; Lesley Ann & Katie Rose know exactly how to get our residents and staff up and grooving!
In their sequined dresses they work the room singing all the classics our residents know and love. Once again...Thank you ladies for another fantastic Claremont Parkway performance.
Claremont Parkway care home provides a varied life enrichment programme tailored to residents’ interests and abilities.
Skittles and Hoops
Our residents had fun in the conservatory with floor games; skittles and hoopla, it was all giggles with a sprinkling of competitiveness! If you fancy joining us for a game, please give the activities team a call on T. 01536 484494 to receive a copy of our monthly activities schedule.
Kettering Library Pop-Up
