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.

Christmas Cake Decorating

Christmas cake decorating was the order of the day at Kingsland House with the lovely Lorraine who came in to help us. We worked hard at rolling out, cutting and baking gingerbread figures and houses, as well as icing for holly leaves and getting marzipan on the cake.  We’re looking forward to our final session bringing it all together for the finishing touches ready for the residents Barchester cake competition!

We had a wonderfully creative afternoon with Ellen one of our nurses who helped us make some lovely tree decorations with crocheted trees, paper and lots of sparkles.  We had a great time and looking forward to putting up all our trees this week to add these creations.
