Activities

At The Ashton Care Home, we’re proud to offer a wide variety of activities for our residents and their loved ones to enjoy. There are many studies which have shown multiple benefits for residents who take part in our care home activities, including improving their overall mental and physical well-being. All of our activities can either be enjoyed within a group setting, on a one-to-one basis, or even more intensively by going on outings in our local community. We have a wonderful team of activities coordinators who carefully plan activities around residents’ individual interests, abilities, and preferences, making sure there are tailored options for everyone, including those who are bed-bound or prefer smaller groups. This ensures that every resident has the opportunity to take part in stimulating, enjoyable experiences that truly reflect them as individuals. Whether you are receiving respite care or long-term care, there is something for everybody to enjoy at our care home in Hinckley.

Exciting & Engaging Activities For All

At The Ashton Care Home, we understand the power of meaningful activities for our residents and their well-being. Our experienced activity coordinators put together a weekly programme packed with engaging opportunities, helping residents stay active and inspired. Popular activities that you or your loved one could expect to enjoy include music sessions, gardening, baking, flower arranging and gentle exercise classes. Residents also regularly enjoy visits from entertainers, pet therapy and pamper days.

Seasonal events such as Pancake Day bring everyone together, while our daily coffee mornings provide new residents with the perfect opportunity to settle in, meet others and build friendships. Families and friends are always welcome to join in and each month we also host a larger social event in the lounge area, as we understand the importance of maintaining current relationships as well as building new ones.

Activities For Everyone

Our activities are designed to suit a wide range of interests, abilities and care needs. For residents who prefer smaller settings or are unable to join main events, we offer one-to-one activities that bring comfort, stimulation and joy. Thanks to our dedicated minibus, residents also have the chance to continue doing the things they love outside of the home, from community trips to attending local clubs. Feedback is always welcome at any time and we ensure that our programme is shaped by the people who matter most, which are our residents. At The Ashton, we are committed to offering adaptable and meaningful activities that keep everyone connected.
