Residents, guests and staff members had a wonderful time at our recent Summer Fête. Thank you to everyone who helped to make it such a huge success.
Meet our Activities Coordinator, Marie McIntyre
Hi, my name is Marie, and I am the Activities Coordinator here at Tixover House. I am very passionate about ensuring that Tixover is a fun and interactive place for residents to live. My aim is to provide a stimulative and person-centred activities programme that reflects the interests and capabilities of everyone we support.
Activities at our home
Our activities team are great at building the activities programme around the likes and interests of the people we care for. Ensuring that our social events offer fun and adventure is part of the ethos of our home; it’s important that those we support can enjoy an active and social lifestyle. Of course, there will always be those who prefer peace and quiet, and in these instances, a cup of tea and a chat are always welcomed.
Life at our home
Summer Fête
A trip to Oundle School
Residents and staff enjoyed a trip out to our local school, Oundle School, recently. Residents loved interacting with the school children and they are already looking forward to their next visit.
Stamford Fete
Some of the staff from Tixover spent the day at the Stamford Fete recently to support and raise money for Barchester's Charitable Foundation. Everyone had a great day chatting to the locals and enjoying the fine weather!
A Trip to Rutland Water Nature Reserve
We had a wonderful time heading out in the minibus recently to visit Rutland Water Nature Reserve. Everyone had a great day taking in all the sites, and the amazing weather made the trip even more worthwhile. We couldn't help getting ourselves an ice cream to cool us all down!
Armed Forces Day at Tixover
We had a great day celebrating Armed Forces Day here at the home as we were joined by some local people in the armed forces. Residents had a great day with lots of reminiscing about the past.
Summer Gardening
Some of our residents really enjoy gardening, so when our maintenance team started tidying up the garden at the front of the home and the courtyard, they were very keen to offer a helping hand! It was a beautiful day in the garden with lots of cold refreshments.
Upcoming events
