Activities at Ashford House Care Home
Here at Ashford House we try to aim to cater to everyone’s hobbies and preferences, nothing is impossible! All our activities are designed to empower our residents helping them complete meaningful activities that stimulate them mentally, physically and emotionally. As well as sticking to 'mainstream' activities that you would normally find in this kind of environment, we aim to step outside the box with our provision. We think this is the best way of creating person-centred activities, as each plan is uniquely crafted around each individual, who are treated with respect and dignity in their choices and supported to take control of how they spend their time.
Sheeba Khan
Hi, my name is Sheeba, and I am an Activities Coordinator here at Ashford House.
Having a degree in Fine-Arts and a creative background enables me to plan person-centred activities according to the personalities and tastes of our residents here at Ashford House. I believe and work towards making a positive difference to their day to day life and I can honestly say this is one of the most rewarding jobs. I am really enjoying my role as an Activities Co-Ordinator at Ashford House.

Vaccination Day with flowers
Today at Ashford House , all our Staff and Residents were vaccinated for COVID-19. It was a very busy day but so worth it to have a fully vaccinated home. The Homes Manager Dily and our Deputy Manager Daisy, then presented all the staff with chocolate and flowers as a thank you for all their help and hard work. The flowers and chocolates made this day extra special for our teams. It was so wonderful for Phil and Peter from the NHS to come into our Ashford House to vaccinate our residents in the comfort of their own home.

Santa's been
This year at Ashford House Care Centre, Santa contacted several local business's and tasked them with sourcing and delivering beautiful gifts to our care home for all our residents. It was a win win situation, the residents loved their gifts and our local business's benefited.
