Activities at The Spires 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.
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.

A Very Special 100th Birthday to Mary
We had the absolute pleasure of celebrating a very special milestone with our wonderful resident, Mary, who recently turned 100!
Our team were delighted to help Mary and her family prepare and decorate for her special birthday celebration. It was such a lovely day filled with smiles, laughter, family, and lots of wonderful memories.
And to make the occasion even more special, Mary received a very special birthday card from His Majesty The King! What an incredible way to celebrate 100 amazing years!
We feel so lucky and honoured to have been part of such a memorable day for Mary and her family.
From all the staff and Residents "Happy 100th Birthday, Mary,
Here’s to celebrating you and all the wonderful memories you’ve made over the past 100 years!"
Creativity was in full bloom at The Spires today!
Our residents truly got their creative hats on for a fantastic arts and crafts session. Some designed their very own custom artwork, while others had a brilliant time painting beautifully colourful plant pots!

We love hosting events that we can open up to our relatives, friends and the wider community. Life at The Spires Care home is about being part of the local community and enjoying life long hobbies whilst also exploring new experiences.

Our visiting Dementia-Trained Barber
A lovely morning of haircuts and music!
Our residents thoroughly enjoyed a visit from our wonderful, dementia-friendly barber today. He was absolutely fantastic with everyone taking his time, listening to stories, and making each resident feel completely comfortable and at ease.
With some classic music playing softly in the background, it created a beautifully relaxed, nostalgic, and enjoyable atmosphere for everyone in the room. There is truly nothing like the feeling of a fresh trim to lift spirits and bring a sense of dignity and well-being!
