Activities at Hampton Grove Care Home
Our home is always full of life, and we can thank our wonderful Activities Coordinators for this. Dedication to creating a unique and interesting activities programme is what sets us apart from other homes. We always take into consideration that some people would prefer to pursue their own interests, which is why our team strive to incorporative activities that cater to a wide range of tastes and hobbies. Our trips out are always fun and exciting as well, and residents are guaranteed to return with stories to tell their loved ones!

I started working for Barchester in October 2020. The team here at Hampton Grove have made me feel welcome. No day is ever the same here.
My varied daily activities and events help to create a stimulating engagement programme to enhance the quality of life for each resident within the home.

Life at Hampton Grove Care Home
Trip to Peterborough Catherdral
A nice little trip to Peterborough cathedral today.
One of our residents Marica who came with us used to work at the cathedral as an meet and great person. It was lovely to take her back there, telling us what she used to do where she used to go.
Trip to Rutland Water
Our trip out today was to Rutland Water.
We visited the shoreline of Rutland Water, Normanton Church.
This church provides a scenic setting which appears to float on the lake.
the residents enjoyed the walk around the church and seeing the wildlife around there too.
Zoo Trip!!
Residents & the activities team from Hampton Grove had an amazing afternoon yesterday visiting Hamilton Zoo and having a picnic.
Residents really enjoyed seeing all the different and fabulous animals playing and having fun.
Janet's commented "I never had thought that I would revisit a zoo, this is marvellous, thank you".This comment is what it's all about.
Bowling Trip
Tenpin Bowling
Residents took a trip to Bretton Tenpin Bowling today. Residents were very competitive towards each other and tried so hard to get a strike. Once a strike had been achieved, everyone cheered and clapped.
It was a great experience for everyone.
Trip to Hunstanton
On Friday we enjoyed a trip to Hunstanton. We stated off the day by watching the tide come in before tucking into some fish and chips. Then we spent the afternoon looking around the Sea Life Centre, learning about all the different animals. Lastly we stopped off for ice cream and no trip to the seaside is complete without a stick of rock!
45th Wedding Anniversary Celebrations
On Saturday we celebrated the 45th wedding anniversary with Karen and Peter.
Karen lives here in Hampton Grove and her husband Peter visits most days, and has become a very good friend to our residents, always making time for them when he visits.
So Hampton Grove wanted to make it a little special for them.
We set up a little tea party for the two of them and made a special cake for them to enjoy.
From all of our family here at Hampton we would like to wish them both a very happy anniversary.
