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.
Bo Tse
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.
Activities and Events Partnerships
As part of our bespoke life-enrichment programmes, we host a number of live virtual events in the home on a regular basis through a number of partnerships with places of interest and world class performance companies
Life at Silverbirch House Care Home
Coffee and cup-cakes
Rosemary and Collin thoroughly enjoyed their trip to a local cafe. Their favourite part of the trip was obviously the coffee and cup-cakes. A lovely way to spend a sunny afternoon.
Bob, our Resident Ambassador.
Meet Bob Silverbirch’s Resident Ambassador. Bob was the first resident to move in to his new forever home, when we opened our doors just a few short weeks ago. We are delighted for him to take on this role. Bob was born in Gateshead before moving to Surrey for his career in his 20’s. He had a very successful career as a Health and Safety Manager at an Oil Company. He has 3 sons and 6 grandchildren who he is extremely proud of. You will usually find Bob in our Cafe with a hot drink and listening to Opera his favourite kind of music.
The Big Quiz!
Our residents and staff came together with 150 other Barchester homes to take part in their first, annual, Big Barchester Quiz! Bob amazed us with his quick answers and we ended up with 29 out of 30 correct so we are feeling pretty proud!
