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.

Race Night!
Residents at Kingsland House recently enjoyed an evening of horse racing. Nick joined us for the evening and residents had a great time placing bets with their tokens. There was quite a bit of competitiveness to see who could win the top prize!
World First Aid Day
Residents at Kingsland House recently enjoy taking part in World First Aid Day. Time was spent talking about how first aid over the years has changed, and some of the ladies had a fun afternoon practicing putting bandages on each other. At Kingsland House, we have ex-nurses as residents and this activity brought back some lovely memories for them.
Afternoon Magic
