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.

Life at Ashlar House Care Home
Happy Birthday, Your Majesty
Residents and visitors at Ashlar House raised a glass to the Queen on her 92nd birthday, and celebrated the day with a royal-inspired party.
Guests enjoyed a relaxing tea with pianist, John Goodall, which was specially prepared for the occasion by our Head Chef.
Easter at Ashlar
Residents enjoyed some Easter hymns and an Easter story was told. We started off Good Friday with lots of events and activities planned. In the afternoon, staff and residents voted for their favourite Easter bonnet. Resident, Clara, can be seen showing off her prize-winning bonnet above.
Ashlar Open Day
In preparation for our open day, some residents have been helping us get our brochures and goodie bags ready for the event.
Ladies Coffee Morning
Ladies of Ashlar House visited Stonards Hill for a lovely coffee morning.
Red Lippy Day
On 3rd May, we encouraged everyone in the work place to wear red lipstick to raise some money for Dementia UK and have some fun whilst doing in.
National Gardening Week
We wanted to rediscover our passion for plants during National Garening Week. Families were in full swing removing weeds and decorating different plants for our gardens.
