Activities at The Warren Care Home
Our teams are trained to enrich the lives of residents through stimulating the mind, body and soul, and taking the time to learn about each person to ensure everyone receives support that adds enrichment to their life.
Here at The Warren, our activities team are always very busy thinking of new ways to keep residents active, both physically and mentally. We have regular trips out in the minibus, both locally and further a field, including the London Eye and the Thames River Trip), at least once a week during the summer months. We also enjoy visits from PAT dogs and have professional exercise sessions and live entertainment, which are always popular.
Kirstie Bush
My name is Kirstie and I am lucky enough to be the Activities Coordinator here at The Warren.
I have many years of experience working in care homes in Activities and leisure and lifestyle roles.
I love being part of The Warren team and supporting our residents to live their best lives with fun, interesting, and varied activities available every week. I always feel that the importance of residents' input into our weekly planner is important giving all residents equal opportunity to explore new interests as well as keeping up with previous interests and hobbies.
Activities and Events Partnerships
As part of our bespoke life-enrichment programmes, we host a number of live virtual events in the home on a regular basis through a number of partnerships with places of interest and world class performance companies

Apple bobbing, the fun Mummy wrap, tiny skeleton hand stacking cup game, balloon tennis and who could forget pin the eye on the Zombie.
Race Night with Pizza
Thank you to all that came to our first Pizza, a pint and a Race night event. We had a blast. With fresh handmade pizzas made by our chef, the bar ready with nachos and dips, my glamorous assistant Tracey on the betting table we were ready. The guests arrived, the residents settled and "we were off".
Berts Amazing Creatures!!
Thanks to Bert for bringing his amazing creatures to us again this month. I was incredibly excited to meet biscuit...the chinchilla. After meeting the Geckos, the hedgehog Salt and marshmallow the guinea-pig it was Cuteness overload.
Fitness and Fun!!
Started the day with our Mobility class which set them for an appetite for lunch. The afternoon was the ever amazing Steve Carmel, who packed out the lounge. Standing room only and what fun we had too. Singing Sweet Caroline, guessing the artist to songs to waving arms and clapping along. What a wonderful afternoon..you can see how much our residents enjoy him from the looks and smiles on their faces.
