Activities at Glebefields 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.
Ashitha Dinesh
Hi, I'm Ashitha, and I'm proud to be part of the team at Glebefields Care Home as an Activities Assistant. I joined the Glebefields family in 2023, having earned my master’s degree in electrical engineering from Coventry University. Despite my engineering background, I bring a fresh perspective to enriching the lives of our residents. I enjoy creating an environment where they can have fun, connect with others, and stay mind active. Together with my co-workers, I'm dedicated to making every moment special for our residents, bringing happiness and meaning to their lives. It's an honour to be part of such a compassionate and dedicated team at Glebefields Care Home.

Life at Glebefields Care Home
Open Day
Our recent Open Day was a really special day we won't forget. We started the day with a lovely flower club session in the morning, followed by an incredible performance by Tony Gibbons' band "Movin On" in the afternoon. Our residents had a wonderful time reminiscing and singing along to classic hits like "Hotel California," "The Most Beautiful Girl in the World," "Jolene," and many more.
A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and made this day so special. We were happy to showcase our warm and welcoming home through show rounds, and we'd be happy to give you a personalised tour of our beautiful home anytime. Just let us know.
Minibus Trip
We had an amazing trip to the retail park, Banbury. Our residents enjoyed visiting Hobbycraft, where Joan found some fantastic wool and storage boxes for her crafting.
One of the lovely moments of the trip was meeting Molly, the adorable 5-month-old dog. Tom instantly fell in love with her. And to top it all off, we treated ourselves to a well-deserved Costa coffee. A wonderful day out with wonderful people.
