Activities at Tewkesbury Fields Care Home
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.

Life at Tewkesbury Fields Care Home
Royal Ascot 2022
We hope that everyone had a lovely weekend and kept well hydrated in Fridays heat! Our residents enjoyed watching Royal Ascot on the TV paired with a refreshing glass of Pimm's - how perfect!
Fun, fun and more fun!
We have had such a fun day! We’ve had a scrabble tournament, cross word puzzles and we even had a special activity discussing one of our residents history board that her family made for her!
It has been so lovely seeing our residents getting to know one another and getting to know all of the amazing staff here!
