Activities at Tixover House Care Home

Our residents enjoyed a wonderful trip out courtesy of our friends at the Welland Vale Garden centre in Uppingham. As our residents enjoyed an array of flora and fauna during a tour of the garden centre, before enjoying delicious cakes and refreshments in the Orchard Café.

Residents at Tixover House enjoyed reminiscing about their own gardens and shared green finger tips with each other and our colleagues at the garden centre.

Residents across our services had a fantastic time joining Mandy Morrow for a virtual walking tour to learn about the ‘Herstory’ of Mayfair. The Mayfair of Nightingales may be long gone but it still holds a 20th century charm. Birthplace to the late Queen Elizabeth II, home to one of WWII's most decorated female war heroes and a tale of a wealthy Aristocrat and one of France's favourite designers.

We were delighted to take a walk down memory lane and discover stories from one of London's most iconic areas.  The experience was truly enjoyed by all.

Tixover House Care Home, in Tixover, Rutland, was full of animal mischief on Thursday when the mobile zoo came to visit the home.

Residents at Tixover House were pleasantly surprised to see animals such as Gecko’s, Snakes, Rodents and Exotic Spiders were brought into our lounge area as Chris from Zoo-Lab paid a visit

We celebrated 4th of July in true American Style. Our home was decorated with themed flags as we hosted an American themed BBQ to mark the special occasion.

We enjoyed listening to some of the all-time favourite American hits, as we gathered together for classic hot dogs, burgers & macaroni cheese, followed by some refreshing beverages.

Tixover House celebrated a special anniversary of the NHS as they celebrated their 75th anniversary.

Residents, their relatives and colleagues all got involved with the spirit of this monumental anniversary as our colleagues visited our local NHS heroes at the Stamford and Rutland General Hospital, whilst back at the home we welcomed entertainer David Cox for a themed afternoon of musical entertainment.

This June, staff and residents at the Tixover have been creating decorations, festooning their home with rainbows and enjoying the colourful celebrations from around the world. 

Lots of the festivities from different parts of the UK and from around the world are available to watch online and residents have had a fantastic time experiencing the different parades and carnivals on offer.
