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

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.

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

High Tea and Poetry

What a lovely way to spend a rainy day. Residents took to the Terrace Bar for an afternoon of cakes, fizz and a wonderful poetry recital from John.

Love is in the Air

We love love here at Silverbirch and Colin and Shelia are real testament to this. 74 Years together and as you can see still going strong. Staff created the perfect afternoon for them in the private dining room. Complete with Balloons, cakes, fizz and a whole lot of love.

That Friday Feeling

It doesn't need to be Friday to be well and truly pampered at Silverbirch. But when the ladies said they had a lunch date in our private dining room with friends, then how could we refuse. Delia set about prepping, preening and making them feel a million dollars.

Live Music at Silverbirch House!

Our residents thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon; the music created a warm and uplifting atmosphere with live keyboard, violin, and outstanding vocals that got everyone's toe-tapping.

Thank you to Lest We Forget for sharing your time and talent with us—it truly was a special day!

From fun outings to quiet moments, there's a little something for everyone in our weekly activities calendar.
