Activities at Tennyson Wharf 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.

Our activities team are great at building the activities programme around the likes and interests of the people we care for. Ensuring that our social events offer fun and adventure is part of the ethos of our home; it’s important that those we support can enjoy an active and social lifestyle. Of course, there will always be those who prefer peace and quiet, and in these instances, a cup of tea and a chat are always welcomed.

Rebecca Harrowing

Activities Co-ordinator

Hi my name is Rebecca, I started working at Tennyson Wharf in July 2024. 

Previous to starting at Tennyson Wharf I have lived in many countries and worked as a supply teacher and administrator in Bahrain in the Middle East - I have also worked in scouting programme groups in both the USA and UK. 

Whilst I have worked with children for a lot of my life, working with the elderly is always been something I have been passionate about. I believe that everybody has a story to tell and our residents life stories all add value to Tennyson Wharf. 

Outside of work I enjoy walking, gardening and going to the cinema. 

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

Easter Celebrations

We’ve had a fantastic few days of Easter celebrations here at Tennyson Wharf from indulging in Chocolate treats, making our very own delicious crispy cakes, playing a variety of themed games and enjoying a special Easter Church Service.

Everyone has had a wonderful time!

Spring is here!

Residents had a fantastic afternoon making some fat balls ready to put outside to feed the birds!

So many residents here at Tennyson Wharf love watching the birds and we can’t wait to welcome more to our lovely garden!
