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
Messy Monday Marble Art
Today we attempted some marble foam art which was very relaxing to touch, and such fun to create, not so much art more about creating mess!
Watching the Lionesses Roar!
Exciting Sunday getting ready to support Lionesses England football team
We’ve got our flags and balloons ready to cheer on the women and hopefully get the win! Our residents are right behind you.
Saturday morning bus trip
This morning we went to Ferry Meadows Nene Park for a walk, cake and a coffee. The weather held out for us, to round off a lovely morning and we can’t wait to go back!
Trip to the seaside
Today we joined Chater Lodge Care Home - Barchester Healthcare for lunch with fish and chips on the Hunstanton beachfront! Our residents loved it, and had a giggle when we stopped for coffee at McDonalds... the free balloons went down well!
What a lovely day we had 'beside the seaside... beside the sea'
