Kelly Sherwin
I started at Tandridge Heights in 2020. Previous to this, I have been working as a carer sine 2010, which has helped me to understand the needs, wants and the individuality of all of our residents.
My main responsibility is provide a varied and engaging activities schedule every day for our residents; this helps to keep them involved in social and uplifting activities. We love to have parties to celebrate birthdays, national days and special occasions.

World Grandparents Day
Here at Tandridge Heights, we know how important our grandparents and their invaluable advice is, so on World Grandparents Day, we got their best words of wisdom and wrote them down for the younger generations to see. We than had a lovely day celebrating our residents with delicious afternoon tea.

Roald Dahl Day
Residents at Tandridge Heights celebrated Roald Dahl Day. We celebrated some of the most cherished and well-known Roald Dahl stories. Residents joined in by reading and discussing their favourite Roald Dahl books. We watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and even had our own sweet cart. We had a fun and exciting day!
In the Mood for Dancing
Residents at Tandridge Heights welcomed a local dance school to perform ballroom and Latin dancing. The dancing and the costumes were amazing and some of our residents even had a go at learning some new dance moves. This was a wonderful afternoon and everyone loved it.
