Activities at Tyspane 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.

Christmas Pantomime

The staff at Tyspane recently put on a performance of 'Snow White and the Seven Carers'. The script was adapted by Shelley Kaleda, our Home Trainer, who not only wrote and directed the performance, but also provided the costumes, props and backdrop. 

Shelley played the Good Fairy and was lit up like a Christmas tree. David Allen brought the house down with his portrayal of the Wicked Queen. Staff from all departments took part and the residents booed and hissed in all the right places.
