Activities at The Warren Care Home
Here at The Warren, our activities team are always very busy thinking of new ways to keep residents active, both physically and mentally. We have regular trips out in the minibus, both locally and further a field, including the London Eye and the Thames River Trip), at least once a week during the summer months. We also enjoy visits from PAT dogs and have professional exercise sessions and live entertainment, which are always popular.
Kirstie Tifrani
My name is Kirstie and I am lucky enough to be the Activities Coordinator here at The Warren.
I have many years of experience working in care homes in Activities and leisure and lifestyle roles.
I love being part of The Warren team and supporting our residents to live their best lives with fun, interesting, and varied activities available every week. I always feel that the importance of residents' input into our weekly planner is important giving all residents equal opportunity to explore new interests as well as keeping up with previous interests and hobbies.

Life at The Warren Care Home

The Good Old Days
On the evening of the 11th August, Tickled Pink came to put on a performance of 'The Good Old Days' for us. It was a lot of fun!
Summer Fete
We held our annual Summer Fete on 13th August, where we had a giant raffle, tombola, BBQ and even a small animal area that included a Shetland Pony. Entertainment for the afternoon was supplied by Bobby G. This was a very enjoyable day and we are all looking forward to next year.
River Trip
20th September saw us board The Queen of the Broads river cruiser for a two hour trip down the river from Wroxham to Horning Reaches, where we see lots of wildlife, the Wherry Yacht, 'Solace', and some wonderful river properties, including the former home of one George Formby! This was a very enjoyable trip, although when we left our moorings, it was raining. Things did get better, however, and by the time we had drank our tea and coffee on board and arrived back in Wroxham, it had dried up.
Grey Skies & Sunny Times
Here at The Warren, we encourage residents to help with the planting of our wonderful sunflowers. And then, the fun begins; we like to hold a competition to see who's will grow the tallest - this year, the winner was one of our chefs, Chris.
All Change
The 23rd September saw the retirement of Barbara, who had been at the helm of The Warren for the last two years. We all wish her well and for her to have a long and happy retirement. So, as we say goodbye to Barbara, we say hello to Amelia, who will now be our leader and guidance for the future. Here’s to exciting times.
