Activities at The Warren Care Home
Here at The Warren, our activities team are always very busy thinking of new ways to keep residents active, both physically and mentally. We have regular trips out in the minibus, both locally and further a field, including the London Eye and the Thames River Trip), at least once a week during the summer months. We also enjoy visits from PAT dogs and have professional exercise sessions and live entertainment, which are always popular.
Kirstie Tifrani
My name is Kirstie and I am lucky enough to be the Activities Coordinator here at The Warren.
I have many years of experience working in care homes in Activities and leisure and lifestyle roles.
I love being part of The Warren team and supporting our residents to live their best lives with fun, interesting, and varied activities available every week. I always feel that the importance of residents' input into our weekly planner is important giving all residents equal opportunity to explore new interests as well as keeping up with previous interests and hobbies.

Life at The Warren Care Home
Bawdeswell Garden Centre
Some residents thoroughly enjoyed an afternoon out at Bawdeswell Garden Centre, including delicious tea and cakes.
North Yorkshire Moors
We took 2 residents on a trip to the North Yorkshire Moors in July and had fish and chips at Whitby. It was a grand day out, which was thoroughly enjoyed by all.
15 Years of Service
Glynis Pearson has worked at the Warren for 15 years in various roles, but is now mainly employed in the laundry department. She is pictured above receiving her award from General Manager, Emma Bayne, and Glynis said she is looking forward to the next 5 years, as she plans to reach 20 years’ service.
Country & Western Night
We organised a country and western evening with Bobby G. The staff enjoyed dressing up and the residents really loved the music and dancing. A good time was had by all and we are planning to organise another night later in the year. Watch this space!
Pub Trip
Operations Manager, Rhiannon Crofts, and our activities team were asked by some residents if they could go to the pub, so an evening out at Horning Ferry was arranged and everyone had a great time, especially enjoying the cheesy chips and onion rings!
Royal Wedding Celebrations
Residents were really excited about the royal wedding of Harry and Megan, and lunch was organised in our lounge for those who wanted to watch the events unfold live on television. Congratulations to the happy couple!
