Activities at Silverbirch House Care Home

We understand that the people we support have passions and interests that could be difficult to pursue after moving into a care home – but that doesn’t mean we don’t encourage them to try! Some hobbies can define a person, so our Activities Coordinators are dedicated to ensuring that everyone we support is able to do what makes them happy to the best of their abilities. Social events are organised with individual tastes in mind and with the idea that residents have the opportunity to try new and exciting things.

A Beautiful Day Out at Guildford Cathedral

Today, residents from Silverbirch House were treated to a visit to the stunning Guildford Cathedral, where they experienced a performance by the Melos Saxophone Quartet. Formed in 2019 at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. The amazing acoustics filled the cathedral, creating a magical musical experience resonating with our residents.

A Fitting Tribute

We were honoured to welcome the incredible D-Day Dollies to Silverbirch House, where they brought the spirit of the era to life with their beautiful voices! In celebration of Remembrance, they performed classic nostalgic and joyous songs that filled the room and echoed down the corridors of Silverbirch. Our residents joined in, singing along to their favourite tunes and waving their flags proudly. It was a moving experience that connected us to the courage and resilience of past generations.
A big thank you to the D-Day Dollies for this unforgettable performance honouring those who served.
