Activities at Archview Lodge Care Home
Our teams are trained to enrich the lives of residents through stimulating the mind, body and soul, and taking the time to learn about each person to ensure everyone receives support that adds enrichment to their life.
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.

Activities and Events Partnerships
As part of our bespoke life-enrichment programmes, we host a number of live virtual events in the home on a regular basis through a number of partnerships with places of interest and world class performance companies
Life at Archview Lodge Care Home




Chef's workshop
Residents really enjoy our senior chef, Ahmet's, workshops.
Today we were baking shortbread. Residents were having fun rolling the dough and cutting out the shapes. The smell of freshly baked shortbread made all of us very hungry, so we decided to have some with a cup of tea.
All residents are looking forward to the next workshop with Ahmet.



New Year's Party!
Archview residents welcomed the new year with a lovely party with piper and life music delivered by Alan Weatherhead.
We had a dance, some tasty homemade snacks and some festive drinks. We all had a ball.
Happy New Year to you all!


Alec Findlay Birthday
Alec enjoyed celebrating his 77th Birthday yesterday with a special visit to the Royal Yacht Britannia at Leith Dock.
He had a marvellous time visiting the ship and seeing all the wonderful exhibits. When asked if he had a good time, Alec said he had the best birthday. Visiting the Royal Yacht again has been amazing.
