Activities at Tandridge Heights Care Home
Our qualified and dedicated activities staff plan and implement all activities within the home. We try our best to arrange activities that reflect our residents interests and capabilities as best as possible, and encourage them to participate in any way they can. We also encourage relatives to join with activities and events as often as they can. We try to keep our residents active and happy.
Our activities include trips to garden centres, pubs, the cinema or the local theatre. We have many fun games like carpet bowls, Play Your Cards Right or armchair exercises. There are many musical events, singalongs, garden parties and tea parties for everyone to enjoy as well!
Kelly Sherwin
I started at Tandridge Heights in 2020. Previous to this, I have been working as a carer sine 2010, which has helped me to understand the needs, wants and the individuality of all of our residents.
My main responsibility is provide a varied and engaging activities schedule every day for our residents; this helps to keep them involved in social and uplifting activities. We love to have parties to celebrate birthdays, national days and special occasions.

Life at Tandridge Heights Care Home
Easter Cards for everyone
We have been inundated with Easter cards of well wishes for everyone. Our local school took the time to write cards to each of our residents. It really brightened everyone's day. We will be writing back to thank each and every one of them and cant wait to thank them in person too.
Long Service Award
She walked through the doors the day they opened and she has been looking after all our residents ever since.We know we are very fortunate to have her, and her long service was awarded with vouchers, presents and a party for everyone to enjoy.
Special Birthday Celebrations
One of our lovely residents just celebrated his 90th birthday. It wasn't how they had planned it with friends and family. However he was lucky enough to be joined for a special dinner with his wife as she is also a resident too. We made sure they spoke with their loved ones and he was pampered by everyone in the home.
Helping Stay Connected
As our doors close to visitors, we know how important it is to stay connected with loved ones. So we have set up Face time calling for all our residents. We want to make sure everyone stays as comfortable and social as possible. Please call reception to book your slot. The email address is loltandridge@icloud.com
Cupcake Decorating
Residents spent an enjoyable afternoon, sipping wine and decorating cupcakes. There was a competition for the best decorated cake, however before judging could commence most of the cakes had been eaten.
Pottering Painting
We spent an afternoon learning about the process of making pottery, and were then lucky enough to have a go ourselves and then decorate it all too.
