Activities at Tixover House Care Home
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.

Life at Tixover House Care Home
Summer Fete Fun
What a fantastic turn out we had today! Everyone at Tixover House would like to thank all our guests for coming out to join in the fun and celebrate such a lovely place to live at our Summer Fete.
With wonderful music, food and stalls we had plenty to keep us all busy! The weather stayed fine and it was smiles all round.
National Potato Day
We thoroughly enjoyed some painting today on Memory Lane! It only got slightly messy!
Summer Crafts and Scrapbooking
We have been scrapbooking, with today's theme being all about farming. Our residents enjoyed doing this activity so much we are going to continue making scrapbooks as it helps with reminiscence and gets everyone talking about previous hobbies and passions.
In the afternoon we enjoyed a round of balloon tennis and crafting before Film Club with ice-lollies and popcorn.
National Bakewell Tart Day
Today we were joined by our head chef Tony as he supported us in making the most delicious Bakewell Tart ever!
Drinks and Yes or No Fun!
Pimms, crisps and a game where you can’t say Yes or No! Fantastic afternoon and thank you to everyone that joined. We can’t wait for the nice weather next week to spend more time outside.
Sunny Days and Ice Lollies
We have spent this beautiful Sunday morning taking advantage of our beautiful scenery. It was such a lovely cool morning, as the sun began to shine we enjoyed a lemon ice-lolly each to keep us refreshed!
