Activities at Silverbirch House 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.

We understand that the people we support have passions and interests that could be difficult to pursue after moving into a care home – but that doesn’t mean we don’t encourage them to try! Some hobbies can define a person, so our Activities Coordinators are dedicated to ensuring that everyone we support is able to do what makes them happy to the best of their abilities. Social events are organised with individual tastes in mind and with the idea that residents have the opportunity to try new and exciting things.

Head of Activities

With previous experience working in a care home as an activities coordinator, I have developed a strong passion for enhancing the daily lives of residents through engaging and meaningful activities.

I am thrilled to join Barchester because of its outstanding reputation for providing exceptional care and a warm, community-focused environment. In my role, I will be dedicated to creating enriching programs that promote social interaction and well-being, helping both residents and their families feel supported and connected.

Surrey Hills Wellfest Festival

Surrey Hills Wellfest Festival

We joined the festival fun yesterday at Surrey Hills Wellfest,
The event allowed those in the health and wellness industry to display their valuable services, meet likeminded people, connect and share.
Networking is important to firstly give back to the local community by supporting these businesses and to show case what help is available to the public.
Some of the support groups that we met yesterday do vital work to help those who could be struggling with various issues and have no where to turn.
We had a wonderful day and made some amazing contacts to work with on future projects and events.

FLOWER ARRANGING SESSIONS

We love creative activities in our home and our residents express their arts and crafts talents by enjoying painting, drawing, sewing, knitting as well as flower arranging!

These sessions provide relaxation, foster creativity and enhance cognitive and emotional development.

CANINEKIDS VISIT

Who doesn't like puppies!!? 

What a wonderful morning we had when Caninekids came to visit with their training group of pups and owners.

The puppies and owners provided a safe and responsible session to help socialise their pets, our residents enjoyed watching them all play and interact together.

Smiles all round and we get to see them again next week too

CONCERT TRIP TO Worplesdon Primary School

Our wonderful local school children provided an afternoon performance of music and entertainment for us to enjoy! 

We took to our mini bus and joined the other audience members to be bowled over by the talented pupils who took part.

Thank you Worplesdon Primary School for the kind invitation.

Mobile Library

OUR OWN MOBILE LIBRARY 

Our wonderful residents have so many interests, hobbies, activities and creative things that they love to do here so we decided to add to the list..... it's a long list by having our very own mobile library.

It's already a huge success with our residents!

Another Review

Another Review

ANOTHER WONDERFUL REVIEW THIS WEEK!

We are on a roll, so the saying goes.... receiving another glowing review in a matter of days from a lovely couple that stayed with us for some respite.

They wanted to take a break from having to worry about their care needs at home and their family suggested they stay with us here for a couple of weeks. We loved having them and they are rebooking another respite stay with us very soon.

We offer short stay and respite stays for anyone in need of a break or maybe their carers need some well earned holiday time off. Either way we can help and happy to do so.
 

Pen Pals With Worplesdon Primary School

Pen Pals With Worplesdon Primary School

PEN PALS WITH WORPLESDON SCHOOL

In the world of iPhones, tablets and social media platforms the art of letter writing is sadly less and less..... NOT for our residents though and for Worplesdon Primary School who are bridging the generation gap by becoming pen pals. 

It's a wonderful feeling to receive a letter and enjoy the words that someone has taken time to share, our residents have absolutely loved these moments. The theme has been 'earliest memories' and so both the pupils and our residents can share their own earliest memories over these precious letters.
 

Knit & Natter

Knit & Natter

KNIT & NATTER

Variety as the saying goes 'is the spice of life' and our residents love variety!

If we're not out at the zoo or taking part in our regular Zumba sessions we also enjoy participating in arts and crafts including our regular KNIT N NATTER classes.

A time to relax and enjoy chatting whilst creating some woolie items too
