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
A Kind Care Package
Tixover House was very humbled to receive a wonderful care package for the residents and staff from Morrisons in Stamford The care package was full of wonderful cakes, biscuits and Easter eggs, which were all enjoyed over a lovely cup to tea! We thank Morrisons for this wonderful act of kindness!
Wise Words
Tixover House residents wanted to pass on some wise words and positivity in these uncertain times, so what better way than having them on show at the front of our home?
Happy Birthday!
We celebrated a very special birthday! Our wonderful resident Joyce turned 101! What better way to celebrate then with a Disney themed party!
We had a lovely sing-a-long and all the staff dressed up in their finest Disney outfits. We even had two little princess come in to join the celebrations. All residents loved listening to them sing and loved singing all of their favourite songs to them as well!
After all the singing residents enjoyed a marvelous buffet, cooked by our wonderful chef, washed down with some bubbly!
We all sung happy birthday and of course had a little taster of the scrumptious birthday cake prepared by our chef. Joyce couldn’t stop smiling and said how grateful she was for such a wonderful party!
Valentine's Day
Residents and staff at Tixover House have been filling their home with love in celebration of Valentine’s Day. The residents enjoyed a morning of flower arranging with beautiful fresh roses which stimulated their senses and led to reminiscing about their own wedding bouquets.
For lunch we all enjoyed a wonderful meal followed by the incredible vocal talents of ‘Nikki.’ All residents definitely had a warm fuzzy feeling as they settled in in front of the TV to watch a romantic movie.
Creative Mojo
Tixover house have enjoyed a creative January with the help of the Creative Mojo! Some of our residents painted some wonderful tropical fish to brighten up our walls. Bill who used to love painting said ‘It was lovely to create a colourful piece of art.
Chinese New Year
The festivities haven’t stopped at Tixover. Residents enjoyed celebrating Chinese New Year in true traditional style. From creating our own dragon to receiving red fortune envelopes our guests were kept entertained and enjoyed learning about another culture.
