The digital ‘Activi-Tea’ Kits include conversation cards, nostalgic quizzes and the site has a range of musical playlists. There is also an interactive Tea Tour game, which can be carried out as an individual activity or as part of a group to keep residents moving around the care home.
Specifically for care home staff, the ‘Activi-Tea’ Kits include educational resources to highlight the importance of staying hydrated and healthy. Each asset has been designed for fun with tangible benefits for those taking part.
Michelle Jee, senior brand manager of Tetley, said: “At Tetley we care, and that’s why the UK’s favourite tea brand is dedicated to providing resources and tools to support the nation’s vital care workers in not just keeping residents healthy and hydrated, but making the experience enjoyable too.
“During the pandemic, the elderly and vulnerable within both residential and community care have often been extremely isolated. At Tetley, we take our hats off to the unwavering support that has been provided by care staff and key workers, and this is our way of giving something back.
“The simple act of sharing a cuppa and having a little bit of fun can really lift the mood – and we hope these ‘Activi-Tea’ Kits spread a little joy as we navigate these uncertain times.”
