Activities at Hilton Park Care Home

We enjoyed a truly lovely Easter celebration with our residents, families, and guests from our sister's home, Oaklands Care Home.

The children had a fantastic time hunting for Easter eggs, and everyone loved the visit from a charming bunnies, kindly arranged by Weyman Funeral Service   — along with tasty hot cross buns and chocolates for all to enjoy.

We were also delighted to welcome some real cuddly visitors from Michelle's Animal Therapy & Petting Party , who brought plenty of smiles and special moments.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the day so enjoyable!

Our residents had a fantastic time during today’s Easter flower arranging session, thanks to the wonderful team from Weyman Funeral Service . Sally and Melissa arrived with armfuls of fresh, colourful blooms and everything needed to get creative – and our residents absolutely loved it.

There were smiles all around as everyone enjoyed making their own beautiful floral creations. We also brought the joy to those in their rooms, with one-to-one arrangements – some even relaxed and watched as Jenny made a special one just for them to keep.

A heartfelt thank you to Sally and Melissa for such a joyful and meaningful day – we can’t wait to welcome you back again soon!

Today, we enjoyed a lovely day out in our local community.

In the morning, we visited our friends at All Saints in Newmarket for our senior coffee morning, where our residents had a delightful time chatting over coffee and singing along to some familiar tunes.

In the afternoon, we headed to Tesco in Milton for a bit of shopping. We were pleased to receive a generous donation from the Community Champion, which will be added to our residents’ bingo prize collection.

It was a truly enjoyable day, filled with smiles, great conversations, and the joy of being out and about.

Residents are getting more excited for our Easter celebrations!

Today, we spent some lovely time in the garden putting up decorations to spread the Easter cheer. With big smiles, residents guided Aldona on where to hang everything, all while enjoying the fresh spring air.

We also visited residents in their rooms for some gentle, relaxing activities to brighten their day.

Two of our residents were in for a lovely surprise when the Easter Bunny arrived to inspect our grounds ahead of this week’s activities, looking for the perfect spots to hide eggs for the children’s Easter egg hunt.

Morwenna said, “I’ve seen life-sized bunnies on television before, but never in real life – what a surprise!”
Morwenna and Greta were teary-eyed with laughter, it was such a joyful and memorable moment.

On the 18th, we’ll be hosting our Easter Yard Sale, with visiting animals and a special appearance from the Easter Bunny.

Come along and join in the fun!

For the first time in four years, Tim went out on a trip. He’s often felt unsure about going out, but recently he’s been full of motivation and said yes — and he thoroughly enjoyed wandering around Coton Orchard Garden Centre Cambridge  with his fellow residents.

They loved looking at the Easter decorations and plants, and all enjoyed a lovely coffee together.

We hope this is just the beginning. Congratulations, Tim, on this wonderful milestone — and well done to everyone involved!!
