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.

Life at Ashlar House Care Home
Sensory Rummage Box
Our highly-attractive, crystal clear sensory liquid set contains colourful mineral oils and water in a range of shapes and designs. When turned upside down, they provide a variety of ways for the droplets to fall or rise. These objects will captivate and fascinate and are an ideal resource for inspiring curiosity, developing creative language and understanding simple scientific principles.
Valentine's Day Preparations
In preparation for our coming event for Valentine’s Day, the home was adorned with lots of themed decorations. Residents and their loved ones enjoyed getting creative; it was a great atmosphere, and everyone was getting excited for the big day.
Musical Magic
Anastasia joined us once again for our monthly Music for Health session, and everyone had a great time!
Old Money
We reminisced using antique coins, which lead to a larger discussion about memories of their era. This session was lead and guided by some of the regular visitors, who helped to educate us on the subject. Residents gathered in the lounge and enjoyed listening in on the conversation shared amongst the group.
For the Love of Music
We were joined by vocal entertainer, Steven Brown, who sang music from the the 1950s through to the 1980s. It was a wonderful show!
Christmas Fête
Saturday 8th December saw us host our annual Christmas Fête, which was well-attended by staff, residents and loved ones of Ashlar House.
Santa and his reindeers made an appearance in our dedicated gardens for our less mobile residents to enjoy viewing. Santa and our little helper distributed presents to all the residents, and there was plenty of bubbly to go round, along with a delicious buffet.
