Activities at Cheverton 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.

Our Activities Coordinators are committed to organising a mix of activities and events for residents and the local community to get involved in, including trips out to local places of interest in our minibus and visits from entertainers and musicians, as well as art therapy, flower arranging, Exercise to music and quizzes. It is important to us that each individual who we support can get as much from these as they can, so we try our best to arrange activities that reflect their interests and capabilities as best as possible, and encourage them to participate in any way they can. We also encourage relatives to join in with activities and events as often as they can.

Tickled Pink!

We had the absolute pleasure of welcoming Tickled Pink Productions to Cheverton Lodge this week, and what a magical experience it was! They captivated us with a beautifully told story about the war and VE Day, bringing history to life in the most heartfelt way. Our residents were transported back in time as they shared memories and reflected on the resilience and spirit of that remarkable generation.

To top it all off, they filled the room with joy by singing a wonderful variety of wartime songs – and yes, there was plenty of toe-tapping and singing along!

A huge thank you to Tickled Pink for bringing smiles, stories, and song to our home. It was a truly unforgettable day.
