Activities at Westvale House Care Home

Our teams are trained to enrich the lives of residents through stimulating the mind, body and soul, and taking the time to learn about each person to ensure everyone receives support that adds enrichment to their life.

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.

Putting Carers on the Map

10th - 16th June is Carers Week and we have been celebrating all of our staff team who provide quality care to our Residents and families every day.

Not just treated to some delicious chocolate treats, we put heartfelt words and inspirational quotes onto thank you cards and spread the love throughout the home.

Carers Week is an annual event to raise awareness of caring, highlighting the challenges carers face, and recognising the contribution they make to our residents, families and communities throughout the UK.

Looking After our Emergency Services

Blue Light Breakfast To Go!

We want to look after those who look after us, and what better way than making sure our emergency services are food fuelled and ready to go!

We visited our local stations including, Warrington Fire Station to deliver 'Barchester Breakfast Baps' for the crew's to enjoy.

These were the wishes of our Residents who want to support our local community.

All Emergency Services and Blue Light Professionals are welcome to visit Westvale House anytime for a brew and piece of cake - it's completely FREE!

Busy in the Garden

We love spending time in our garden, it is a beautiful environment where Residents and their families can sit, relax and enjoy a variety of exciting gardening activities.

This week, family and friends of Westvale House made the most of the sunshine entertaining their relatives by giving our garden some well deserved TLC.  A few of us even enjoyed a tipple of wine.

We are looking forward to the summer days ahead and more time outside in the fresh air.

Celebrating 200 Years of Cadbury

Celebrating Dementia Action Week at our care home was truly special.

Our Residents and teams came together for a heart-warming reminiscing activity to share memories and lovely stories.

Thanks to the generous support of Cadbury, we received a delightful surprise – memory bar boxes filled with Dairy Milk bars wrapped in designs reflecting Cadbury rich 200-year history.

We all had a great time while enjoyed some delicious sweet treats.

Westvale Do Wigs

Residents and staff gained some inspiration from watching the famous Dirty Dancing movie, and decided to recreate the iconic wig scene in the hope of bagging themselves their very own Patrick Swayze! 

General Manager, Jackie Bray was keen to get in on the action and we think red is definitely her colour!

Joy and laughter filled the air as everyone reacted to the new looks of Residents and staff around the home.

In Green and Gold for St Patrick's Day

What a wonderful day we had at Westvale House celebrating St Patrick's Day!

We had Irish music playing throughout the lounge whilst our lovely residents sang along. We decorated the home in green and gold to mark the occasion, and everyone was in full attire with head boppers and glasses bringing lots of laughter and joy! Our residents shared their knowledge with a quiz and listened to poems from the Emerald Isle.

The festivities continued in the dining room where our hospitality team had made a delicious traditional Irish meal including freshly baked Guinness cake. Everyone had such a wonderful time.
