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.
Paula Lourenco
Hello, my name is Paula and I’m the Activities coordinator at Tewkesbury Fields care home. I’ve joined Barchester healthcare in 2020.
As part of the lifestyle enrichment team, I will be organising daily activities, ensuring that residents have varied activities to choose from each day. I love enriching our residents’ lives, creating memories and be able to provide meaningful activities to each one of the residents living at Tewkesbury fields.
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
Life at Tewkesbury Fields Care Home
2 Valais blacknose and 4 pigmy goats
What a fantastic time with students from Bredon School and Lodge Valais & friends who kindly brought 2 valais blacknose and 4 pigmy goats for everyone to see!
Not to mention the cuteness, there was a lot of fun and laughter together.
While meeting the students, residents truly enjoyed sharing some stories of when they were younger; some had farms and talked about their work experiences.
There were so many cuddles too!
Thanks to all at Bredon School and Lodge Valais, for teaming up together and bringing so much joy to all residents and staff at Tewkesbury Fields!
Towel printing workshop
Residents have enjoyed another workshop at Bushley Village Hall. There was a a range of choices available; the residents chose tea towel printing.
After some practice on paper, residents got brave to create their design on their own tea towel; from a great choice of colours, to the Indian wooden printing blocks, the event was amazing.
Not forgetting to mention the delicious cakes and refreshments available! Thanks again for inviting us! Residents had an amazing time and were very proud of their fantastic work! Don't they look beautiful?
Cheers to 102 years!
Elena celebrated her 102nd milestone in style! Elena was joined by her family, staff members, relatives and residents! A special birthday cake made by our head chef went down well with a glass of Prossecco!
Thanks to Nick, from Mini Concerts who sang the most beautiful songs for the afternoon entertainment! To say, we've reached over 105 birthday cards, it's just an absolute incredible achievement! Elena was absolutely thrilled by the kindness of how many people kindly has written a card for her special day! Elena has said "Thank you all so much, it's very kind of you! I've never seen so many birthday cards! I still can't believe I'm 102 years old!"
Cheese and wine tasting
What a great time for cheese and wine tasting with residents from Marina Court!
There was white and red wine, or a choice of prosseco; as well as other refreshments, all going well with variety of cheese and biscuits prepared by our amazing Head chef. Vivienne, our resident ambassador, challenged the group with a quiz of 40 questions, divided in 4 different themes! And what a great variety! It was lovely welcoming you all to our home, and we look forward for more events together!
International Nurses day
We've been celebrating International Nurses day!
Our General Manager, James Culley, visited the Community District nurses team and Tewkesbury Hospital nurses to give some delicious vanilla and chocolate cupcakes (home-made by our talented chef), to thank all the amazing nurses for their dedication, compassion, hard work and tireless efforts! The commitment, resilience and kindness deserve our appreciation.
Happy International Nurses day!
King Charles III Coronation celebrations
A great day of celebrations at Tewkesbury Fields Care Home, for the Coronation of His Majesty King Charles III!
Residents and families got together, and enjoyed a delicious Royal lunch that was prepared by our talented chef, followed by a wonderful show, as always, by Emily from Mini Concerts!
It was a great time spent together!
