Activities at Tewkesbury Fields 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.

Hello, my name is Paula and I’m the Activities coordinator at Tewkesbury Fields care home. I’ve joined Barchester healthcare in 2020.
As part of the lifestyle enrichment team, I will be organising daily activities, ensuring that residents have varied activities to choose from each day. I love enriching our residents’ lives, creating memories and be able to provide meaningful activities to each one of the residents living at Tewkesbury fields.

Life at Tewkesbury Fields Care Home
The Women's Tour 2022
What an exciting morning in Tewkesbury! Today The Women's Tour started stage 3 of the cycle from Tewkesbury high street!
Our lovely ladies headed off down to the high street to make sure they had prime spots at the starting line to watch the race begin! It was such a brilliant atmosphere and we wish all the riders the best of luck today and on the rest of the tour!
We finished up with a trip to Costa for some hot tea and cake! Another brilliant day at Tewkesbury Fields Care Home - Barchester Healthcare.
Ladies who lunch - Browns Garden Restaurant
We we took our lovely residents to Browns Garden Restaurant, they’d found out Marion was 102 on Saturday and they came out and sung to her and gave her some delicious cupcakes! To all the team at Browns Garden Restaurant- thank you for making our day!
The ladies enjoyed a delicious lunch and a chat with carer Hayley and HSA Emma! After lunch we went for a walk around the beautiful garden centre.
Platinum Jubilee Celebrations
What a fantastic afternoon!
A BIG thank you to Ashchurch View Care Home - Barchester Healthcare Care Home for inviting us along to join your Vintage Afternoon Tea Party! We felt so welcomed by all of the staff and residents and enjoyed this wonderful event so much!
We enjoyed finger sandwiches, tea and delicious cake in the garden - just like the Queen would have wanted! The entertainment was amazing and we all had a good sing along and a few even attempted a little dance!
We are so lucky to be part of the Barchester family and can’t wait to enjoy the rest of the Jubilee weekend!
Marion turns 102!
Here at Tewkesbury Fields Care Home - Barchester Healthcare, we’ve been celebrating another VERY special lady! Today, Marion turns 102 years old! Marion was one of the first residents here at Tewkesbury Fields and we feel so honoured to be able to celebrate with her today! Marion is always smiling and is a ray of sunshine in the home!
Today Marion is having a tea party with staff, residents, family and friends! We asked Marion what her secret to living to 102 was and she answered “laughter, never taking life to seriously and always being happy for others!” What an outstanding answer!
Our manager, James says “Marion is a wonderful lady and we hope she has the best day celebrating turning 102 at Tewkesbury Fields.”
Let the celebrations begin! Platinum Jubilee 2022!
This morning we kicked off the festivities by watching the trooping of the colour in Bushley Lounge. Residents, families and staff gathered and watched with such pride of our Royal family. The next couple of days are going to be full of fun – stay tuned for more pictures!
