Activities at Kingsland House Care Home

Kingsland House have a variety of activities that our residents help us choose. Celebrating Life in our home is jovial and fun and from our weekly delivered activity sheet, our residents can chose exactly what they want to join in with.

Our activities range from exercise classes, gardening, arts and crafts, games to food-fun clubs. We also offer our in house church services, our own home cinema, our mobile pub - The Kingsland Tavern, visiting Pat Dogs, musical entertainers, minibus outings, theme days and birthday celebrations. For those residents being nursed in their rooms we have one to one activities sessions.

At Kingsland House we believe that activities are hugely important to stimulate and uplift, and getting to know our residents interests and lifestyle choices assist our activities team in creating events and activities to suit their expressed wishes and capabilities. We also encourage our residents' families and friends to join in with as much as they can to make Kingsland House a loving family atmosphere.

Mo Clark

Activities coordinator

I've been at Kingsland House as the Activities  Coordinator since April 2024 having previously worked in a similar role since 2020.

My previous experience has been in working as a carer and air bnb host,   corporate finance and project management for many years.  This is my most rewarding role to date and I am passionate about working with the elderly.

I love the variety of each day, getting to know and share in the lives of our residents.  The commitment and support of Barchester enables us to deliver activities and outings that go above and beyond to support and celebrate life which makes the difference to our residents wellbeing and happiness.

Life at Kingsland House Care Home

Its all fun & games

Come rain or shine, it's always fun & games at Kingsland House. 

We like to get our minds working with puzzles, word games and board games and really test our brain power, starting with easy games to warm up, then tackling the more difficult ones. We can get quite competitive, but always have a laugh! 

A trip to Lancing college

An outing to Lancing College! 
We took to the road in our mini bus and visited Lancing College to enjoy the stunning building and the very kind hospitality offered to us all. It was a wonderful trip to attend Evensong at Lancing college chapel.
We all enjoyed the fabulous voices of the college choir. Our residents said it was magical to take part and be in the beautiful chapel truly enchanting.

Feathers & Fur

Our residents enjoyed a wonderful visit from PetPals Therapy and friends this week bringing us some extremely cute guinea pigs to pet and some amazing turkeys to see! We absolutely loved the visit as you can see from the smiles! PetPals recognise how special it is for our residents to interact with the outside world, make happy memories & provide new experiences. The furry and feathered visitors certainly worked a special kind of animal magic for us here at Kingsland House!
