Activities at Silverbirch House Care Home

Our teams are trained to enrich the lives of residents through stimulating the mind, body and soul, and taking the time to learn about each person to ensure everyone receives support that adds enrichment to their life.

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.

Activities Lead

I started as a caregiver and was later given the opportunity to become an activity- coordinator, a role that I absolutely love.

I enjoy spending time with our residents and helping them stay active both physically and mentally.

Seeing them smile and engaging in activities makes my job very rewarding.

I’m so happy to be part of the wonderful team at Silverbirch!

Getting creative together!

It was so rewarding to see everyone enjoying the process of transforming old curtain rings into beautiful beach-themed sun catchers. From mixing the sand and resin to adding the tiny shells and starfish, every single piece was unique and made with care. 

Seeing the smiles, conversations, and sense of achievement as each sun catcher came to life is exactly why we love our arts and crafts sessions.
