Activities at Adlington Manor Care Home
Activities are an integral part of life at our care home. We want to ensure that the people we support have as much fun as possible during their time with us, so it’s important that our activities programme is created with the interests of residents in mind. Our skilled Activities Coordinators bring a certain uniqueness to the home that can’t be found anywhere else, and which is reflected in the activities they organise.
Lynne Bowler
I joined the activities team at Adlington Manor in May 2017. Previously, I have worked as a tree surgeon and have had heavy involvement with the Guides and Brownies. I love participating in activities with residents, whether that's by driving the minibus on trips outside the home, or by engaging in themed days.
I am passionate about my role and especially the challenge of coming up with new ways to engage as many residents as possible in our activities here.

Life at Adlington Manor Care Home
Spring Sunshine
Residents indulged in some cool ice cream and G&Ts on a beautiful spring day recently.
St George's Day
As part of our St George's Day celebrations, the Balloon Man visited to amuse residents with balloon art. A fabulous afternoon was had by residents, who enjoyed many varied designs.
Staff also organised for a vintage double decker bus to make a stop off at our home.
We were also joined by the Mayor of Bollington, Cllr Andrew Langdon, who joined in with the celebrations.
Fun in the Sun
It was the first sunny day of the year, so residents got to enjoy lunch outside. We were preparing for the Queen's birthday celebrations so, of course, Her Majesty was present as well.
10 Years of Service
Deputy Manager, Cath Ritchie, recently received her 10 year Long Service Award. Congratulations, Cath – we look forward to another wonderful 10 years!
Museum Visit
Residents took a trip to the local war museum to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the RAF. They enjoyed a wonderful day that invoked memories of times gone by.
Sport Relief
Residents took part in Sport Relief to raise money for charity. Everyone had a lot of fun!
