Activities at Cepen 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.

Life at Cepen Lodge Care Home
Canon's House Summer Fete
Cepen Lodge were delighted to be invited to the Canon’s House summer fete. We took residents Tony, Margaret and Mona along, thank you all the Canon's House team for such a warm welcome. We enjoyed looking at all the stalls and having a cup of tea and delicious cake watching the children enjoy games and train rides. We also bought back some cakes which residents enjoyed in the gardens when we returned.
Canon's House is a very special place supporting children and their families, we look forward to our next visit.
Work Experience Student Runs Art Therapy Classes
We welcomed Annabel to Cepen Lodge who was on her work experience week with Barchester Healthcare. Annabel is a year 10 student at Collegiate School with a real interest in art, she held two art therapy workshops; in the morning on our Memory Lane Community and then with the General Community in the afternoon. The workshops were very relaxed and as always getting round a table gives everyone the chance to chat.
We utilised Annabel’s artistic flair and asked her to create a giant moon for our new “Wish Upon a Star” initiative. Thank you Annabel for running such enjoyable sessions and for our moon!
