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.

Hello, my name is Caroline and I joined the team at Tixover House in 2023.
I am passionate about creating person-centred activities which ultimately enrich our residents' lives. My main aim is to bring happiness through the doorway daily; spreading smiles, laughter and love - I want to make a difference to the lives of those that we support.

Life at Tixover House Care Home
Burns Night
25th January was Burns Night. A great evening was had by all and everyone enjoyed celebrating the life of Robert Burns with Scottish songs and poems and fantastic food!
Twinkle Toes at Tixover
Activities Coordinator, Marie McIntyre, brought life to the home by getting residents, staff and even the General Manager to dance in the reception area at the start of the day. Everyone thought it was a great way to finish the night shift and start the day shift.
Keeping Busy
Residents have been helping out with domestic chores and they all enjoyed helping out.
Winnie the Pooh Day
For our Winnie the Pooh Day, we enjoyed learning about the bear's life story and how he came to be, followed by songs from the Winnie the Pooh films that we all love.
Singing for Memory Lane
We were joined by some entertainers who helped to get our vocal cords working properly – it was a really enjoyable afternoon!
Four-Legged Friend
We had a recent visit from our new four-legged friend – he was on his best behaviour.
