Activities at Tewkesbury Fields 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.

Life at Tewkesbury Fields Care Home
Tewkesbury Town Brass Band Christmas Visit
Tewkesbury Town Brass Band paid us a visit this Christmas to entertain everyone at the Home, including friends and family members. The bright a cheerful music was experienced throughout the Home, as resident listened to them play in our courtyard garden from the cosy lounges and patio rooms. Everyone also enjoy hot chocolate and festive treats prepared by our expert chefs.
Alderman Knight School Visit
We had a special visit from the Alderman Knight School this Christmas, not only did they sing for residents but they gifted a wonderful hamper full of festive goodies. The afternoon was thoroughly enjoyed by all Residents, who could not thank them enough for making the morning one to remember.
Twyning Christmas Parade Visit
The Home had a very special visit from Santa and his Sleigh which was made possible by the Twyning Community Parade volunteers, who brought some festive joy to the Home. There was singing, dancing and smiles all round and Residents got to support their very festive community fund raising efforts.
Traditional Decorating with the Cub Scouts
The 1st Bredon Cubs have been lending a hand to spread some festive cheer at Tewkesbury Fields Care Home by helping residents decorate the Home. The activities team set the challenge to make some festive decorations by hand with residents and together they crafted, trimmed and made some amazing festive paper chains which reached above 10 metres in length.
Elf Day Fun
It was a cold December day and the team pulled out all the stops to support the Alzheimer's Society. Residents enjoyed some fresh cake and a song or two and staff enjoyed dressing up for the occasion.
Remembrance
Residents had the privilege of attending Tewkesbury Remembrance Parade. Our Veteran Resident Richard wore his medals with pride and laid a Wreath at the War memorial cross, Tewkesbury. He was so pleased to be able to honour those who have given so much, and represent the Residents at the Home.
Residents and staff thanked all at Tewkesbury Town Council, Royal British Legion and all the Veterans for supporting us in making this very special and meaningful moment to happen for our residents.
