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.

Easter Activities
Over the Easter period, residents here at Ashford house took part in a number of Easter-themed activities, including bonnet making and egg painting, and indulged in some Easter treats that were prepared by our wonderful kitchen team.
Minibus Trip
We recently went out on a minibus trip to our local garden centre. Residents enjoyed looking at flowers and animals and indulged in tea and coffee and cakes at the cafe.
Modelling Clay
Residents who took part in our most recent craft session made clay models.
Accordion Entertainment
Dave recently played played his accordion for us. It was a great morning and everyone enjoyed watching and listening to him perform.
Arts & Crafts
We love being creative at Ashford House, so we hold a weekly craft session where we paint, draw and colour.
A resident who comes to the activity nearly every week wanted to try something new, so we decided to design a mosaic using some table squares, which went down really well.
