At Alexander House, we believe in the importance of community, connection, and creating moments of joy. That’s why we have started our weekly Nibbles and Tipples event. It is held every Thursday and brings together residents, families, and friends to share laughter, conversation, and a delightful selection of drinks and nibbles—all in a warm and welcoming setting.

What makes Nibbles and Tipples truly special is its ever-changing theme. Each week, we introduce something new to keep things fresh and engaging. Whether it’s a lively music night, a visiting magician, or an afternoon of poetry readings, there’s always something to spark conversation and enjoyment. The variety ensures that there is something for everyone, catering to different interests and making each week feel unique.

But beyond the entertainment, our Nibbles and Tibbles event has one main purpose - bringing people together. For our residents, it’s an opportunity to socialise, form new friendships, and maintain long-standing relationships. For families, it’s a chance to join in, share precious moments with their loved ones, and strengthen the bonds that mean so much. These gatherings help to bridge the gap between generations, allowing loved ones to connect in a relaxed and joyful environment.

The impact of these weekly activities has a lasting effect on everybody. Our residents always look forward to the event and families appreciate the chance to spend quality time with their loved ones in their home away from home. Even our team members love taking part, as it brings a real sense of community spirit to Alexander House. Seeing residents light up with smiles, reminiscing over a song or laughing at a joke, is a reminder of how important these moments of connection truly are.

Social interaction plays a vital role in maintaining both mental and emotional health, particularly for older adults. Regular events like this help combat loneliness, encourage engagement, and create a stronger sense of belonging. As we continue to enjoy Nibbles and Tipples each week, we are always looking for new themes and ideas to keep things exciting. It is important to us that our residents feel at home when residing at our care home in Pinhoe, so ensure there is always something for everybody to take part in or enjoy.

We’re incredibly proud of the success of this event and the joy it brings to residents and families alike. If you’d like to join us for an upcoming Nibbles and Tipples, we’d love to welcome you.
