Activities at The Spires Care Home
Activities are an integral part of life at our care home. We want to ensure that the people we support have as much fun as possible during their time with us, so it’s important that our activities programme is created with the interests of residents in mind. Our skilled Activities Coordinators bring a certain uniqueness to the home that can’t be found anywhere else, and which is reflected in the activities they organise.
Angie Smith
Hi, my name is Angie and I am an activities coordinator here at The Spires. We all know that keeping active is important. We have created a wonderful culture within the home and we work together to give residents the best possible experience. We are here to ensure that residents enjoy an environment that is both stimulating and socially active.
We ensure the team knows each residents' preferences, so that we can deliver a person-centered program of events and activities. Essential to our homely feel is the strong relationships of trust we build with residents and their families and friends.

Life at The Spires Care Home
Visit to Litchfield Cathedral
Today at The Spires some residents have enjoyed a Trip to Our Lichfield Cathedral for an Epiphany Service. Epiphany is the celebration of Christ’s baptism. On there return the afternoon was devoted to deciding on a winner of the Santa’s little Helper Christmas colouring competition.
Festive cheer!
Today our residents were getting right in to the Spirit of Christmas, drinking wine and having a good old sing a long this morning to Bing Crosby. Then this afternoon residents family’s were invited to join in with the fun, we had cakes and mince pies made by our resident’s mulled wine and a few games.
Delicious mince pies
Today at The Spires some of our residents have been making mince pies for our family day tomorrow. Others have been making fat balls for our Garden so the birds can enjoy.
Elf Day
Residents and staff at The Spires Care Home have enjoyed celebrating Elf day. Residents and staff got dressed up in their most elfy attire and enjoyed elf quizzes, elf games and elf themed food to help raise money for the Alzheimer’s Society.
Christmas Photo shoot
Residents at The Spires Care Home have enjoyed a festive photoshoot ready for Christmas. Residents put on their best smiles ready for the Christmas card shots which will be given to relatives to celebrate Christmas.
Dressing the tree
Today our residents engaged into some creative colouring fun and made these bubbles for our Christmas tree in memory lane. Then they read aloud in our dementia book club, whilst sipping Buck’s Fizz and eating Christmas cake.
