Activities at Crabwall Hall 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.

We all know that keeping active is important. We have created a wonderful culture within the home and we work together to give residents the best possible experience. We are here to ensure that residents enjoy an environment that is both stimulating and socially active. We ensure the team knows each residents' preferences, so that we can deliver a person-centered program of events and activities. Essential to our homely feel is the strong relationships of trust we build with residents and their families and friends. The home also has its very own minibus for our numerous outings for coffee and shopping, which residents love.

We enjoyed a fantastic taste-a-long experience from the comfort of our home, from Tudor treats to Stuart sweets. A lovely time was had by all.
Pancake Day
What a lovely pancake day lunch we had today with our resident Anne & daughter Leslie, and of course our amazing volunteer Eileen. We all enjoyed some delicious pancakes at The Oak Tree pub, which we all agree we would highly recommend!
Monthly Baking Club at Crabwall Hall
There's no better way to spend an spending an afternoon than baking! We all loved making the best British teatime treat the JAM TART. The best bit of course is eating it when it's nice & warm. We are already looking forward to our next baking afternoon in March.
