Activities at Hilton Park 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.

Jenelyn Szabo

Activity Coordinator

Hello, my name is Jenelyn and I am the head of activities here at Hilton Park.

Having started my Barchester journey as a carer back in 2019, I have gained good experience of working closely with our residents. After being a carer I then moved onto the Activities team and thoroughly enjoyed working as an Activities co-ordinator, which led to my promotion to Activity Lead.

Nothing makes me happier than seeing the smiles on our residents faces.

When Irish eyes are smiling..........

We celebrated St Patrick's Day in style at the home with a wonderful morning of music from the very talented Alex Southgate. Alex had his accordion with him and treated the residents with some classic Irish songs which lead to lots of singing and dancing.

The residents were also very happy to pose for photos in front of our St Patrick's Day banner with Alex and Aldona, who was wearing her lucky shamrock outfit.

It was another memorable occasion at Hilton Park and we very much look forward to seeing Alex at the home in the very near future.

Morwenna's purr-fect day!!!

Morwenna was over the moon when the family of one of our former residents came to visit, bringing a wonderful surprise - five adorable kittens!

Knowing how much Morwenna loves animals, especially cats, they couldn’t wait to share the joy with her. She was completely taken by surprise and absolutely delighted, overjoyed at the chance to cuddle and hold the tiny kittens.

It was a truly heart-warming moment, and Morwenna couldn’t have been happier!

A day at Hilton Park

Today, we enjoyed a variety of activities, including flower arranging, not just for our ladies but also for our gentlemen. John and Dennis were particularly inspired, creating their own beautiful displays that have brightened up our home. Meanwhile, the ladies worked together, sharing lovely conversations as they arranged their flowers.  In the afternoon, we gathered to watch the Barchester virtual event, "Meet the Owls," on screen. For those who preferred a quieter afternoon, we also made individual room visits to spend quality time with our wonderful residents in the comfort of their own spaces.

International Women's Day

Today, our residents were treated to a wonderful live music performance by "Vintage Songbird" Sally. We were delighted to welcome families and the All Saints Church community to our home to share in the celebration. After the performance, everyone enjoyed some lovely refreshments together. To mark this special occasion, all the ladies received flowers in recognition of International Women’s Day - a day dedicated to celebrating the achievements, strength, and contributions of women around the world

A welcome return to the Abbey

Today, we had a delightful visit to Anglesey Abbey and Gardens, strolling through the beautiful gardens and admiring the vibrant spring flowers. The sunshine, fresh air, and birdsong made it all the more special! We took a lovely break in the gardens, enjoying tea, coffee, and hot cross buns together, sharing laughter and good company. It was wonderful to have some of our residents' families join us on the trip too!Everyone loved seeing the spring flowers in bloom, and the sunshine was the perfect finishing touch to a truly wonderful day.

Welcoming the King

ELVIS IS IN THE BUILDING!!!!!

We enjoyed an incredible performance from one of the finest Elvis impersonators around. An exceptional singer, performer, and all-round entertainer, 'Elvis' treated us to one of the best performances that we have had at Hilton Park for a long time. The residents absolutely loved the show from start to finish, and we can’t wait to welcome him back.

Many thanks to the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll.......you were truly brilliant!!
