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 and Events Partnerships
As part of our bespoke life-enrichment programmes, we host a number of live virtual events in the home on a regular basis through a number of partnerships with places of interest and world class performance companies

Communion Gathering at Silverbirch House
At Silverbirch House, we are committed to fostering inclusivity and honouring our residents' diverse faiths and spiritual needs. Moments like these bring connection and comfort to our community.

The Great Silverbirch House Gingerbread Competition!
Our residents got into the festive spirit with our much-anticipated gingerbread baking and decorating competition, judged by none other than the fabulous Denise Welch of Loose Women and Coronation Street fame beaming in through Facetime! The competition was fierce, with individual creativity on display. After much deliberation (and some very tough decisions), Denise announced the winners:
3rd Place: Ann’s delightful creation
2nd Place: Gillian’s stunning gingerbread masterpiece
1st Place: Denise, who wowed the judges with her winning design!
A huge thank you to Denise Welch for joining us and making the day special, and to all our talented residents for their amazing efforts.

Festive Activities at Silverbirch House!
The festive spirit is in full swing here at Silverbirch House. This week in the interest of life-enriching activities, we gathered for a Christmas wreath-making session. Everyone had the chance to design their own unique wreaths to brighten up their rooms or gift to loved ones.
