Activities at Ashlar House Care Home
Activities are an integral part of life at our care home. We want to ensure that the people we support have as much fun as possible during their time with us, so it’s important that our activities programme is created with the interests of residents in mind. Our skilled Activities Coordinators bring a certain uniqueness to the home that can’t be found anywhere else, and which is reflected in the activities they organise.
Rita Green
As the Community Engagement Lead and Lifestyle Coordinator, I will be spending time with each resident and their loved ones to build a detailed picture of each individual, so that each person’s stay with us is as meaningful as possible. Although I have been working within this field for many years, thanks to the uniqueness of each resident, I am always enjoying new experiences in my role. My goal is to create an activities programme that caters to the capabilities of residents, including, but not limited to, individual and group activity.
I've spent the past few years forging strong relationships within the community and developing a pool of talented individuals that can support our in-house team to bring out the best in those we care for.
As we never stop growing and changing, it is important that we maintain an up-to-date Getting To Know Me booklet. With your help, the activities scheduled for your loved ones will be as relevant and enjoyable as possible.
I’m very much looking forward to working with all of you.

Santa pays us a visit at Ashlar House
Santa visited Ashlar House thanks to the lovely members of our Epping Forest Rotary Club.
Santa paid a visit to our residents and brought cheer and joy into the home. Families, friends and local community members joined in the fun too and enjoyed festive treats and hot drinks. Everyone was asked to bring their Christmas wish list as Santa was giving presents away and he knew who’s been nice or naughty!
The experience was truly enjoyed by all.
Jack and the Beanstalk - Christmas Pantomime

Chimneys Primary School Christmas Choir
What a fabulous afternoon we all had.
We were visited by 28 children from Ivy Chimneys Primary School, who brought happiness and joy into the home by singing loud and proud their Christmas choir.
The fun continued as the home’s General Manager took over and kept everyone’s vocal cords warm with festive songs and Christmas carols, whilst the Manger Sharon was distributing the sweets at the door.
We all had a fantastic afternoon, full of smiles, laughter and of course, lots of singing! Whilst making paper chain.
