Festive activities for our residents, bringing joy to our homes
As we move into December, Springfield Care Homes is embracing the warm, joyful spirit of Christmas. This time of year is incredibly special for our residents, families and team. It’s filled with companionship, creativity, shared laughter and meaningful moments, and we have planned a full calendar of festive activities designed to bring comfort, connection and Christmas cheer to everyday life.
From cosy craft sessions to lively musical visits, winter walks, delicious seasonal baking and family afternoons, our December schedule is all about celebrating together and creating memories that feel like home. You can keep up to date with everything happening this month in our news and events.
Celebrating Christmas Together
Christmas is a time when company, warmth and togetherness matter more than ever. For our residents, these shared moments help create a sense of belonging and lift wellbeing throughout the season. We have designed our December activities to offer variety, joy and comfort, ensuring every resident can take part in something that makes them smile. You can learn more about life in our homes by exploring our homes.
Here’s a look at what we have planned.
Festive Baking and Christmas Crafts
Creative sessions are an important part of the season. Residents will enjoy:
- Christmas card making
- Festive decoration-making
- Cosy craft afternoons
- Baking traditional seasonal treats
These activities are not only enjoyable but also support dexterity, memory and social connection. Our wider approach to wellbeing can be explored through about us.
Live Music, Singers and Carol Sessions
Nothing captures the magic of Christmas quite like music. This December, we’ll be welcoming visiting singers and performers, carol singers and local groups including the Scouts. And of course, Santa will be making an exclusive visit. Music brings joy, nostalgia and a shared sense of celebration across the home.
Visits from Animals and Community Groups
We’re delighted to be hosting special visitors throughout the month, including donkey visits, local community groups and children’s organisations bringing festive cheer. These experiences spark conversation, interaction and plenty of smiles. You can learn more about our ethos through about us.
Winter Walks and Gentle Outdoor Activities
On bright winter mornings, residents can enjoy peaceful winter walks and gentle movement outdoors. Fresh air and daylight play an important role in wellbeing, especially during the cooler months. You can see more about our surroundings and gardens in our homes.

Family is at the heart of everything we do. December features family afternoons, relaxing coffee meetings and opportunities for loved ones to join in our festive programme. These moments strengthen connections and offer reassurance that residents are part of a vibrant, caring community. Anyone wanting to visit can connect with us through contact.
