Activities at Cheverton Lodge Care Home
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.

Life at Cheverton Lodge Care Home
Looking Back
The Kissing it Better charity is linking older people in care homes to the outside world through Zoom every week. This time was all about residents' memories about World War II when they were just kids.
Flowers of Youth
When you get some beautiful flowers, it only means one thing: a morning of flower arranging!
With some eager and very creative residents, it was a lovely morning activity – and now we have some gorgeous flower displays around the home.
Black History Month
At Cheverton, residents and staff enjoyed some amazing ethnic food and music from all over the world!
We celebrated the extraordinary contribution that our Afro-Caribbean communities have made to the United Kingdom and globally. It honours the life, experience and history of people of Afro-Caribbean ethnicity.
The Smoothie Experience
Residents have enjoyed an afternoon full of new flavours and textures: pineapple & banana, mango & coconut, peach & mandarin, strawberry & banana, and the traditional banana milkshake.
Cheese & Wine
Every week, we hold a social event where residents can gather together to socialise. Last week we had a cheese & wine tasting evening, where residents tasted different types of cheese and washed them down with some delicious wine. Cheers!
Rock 'n' Roll Afternoon
The rock 'n' roll-themed day saw residents and staff dance to the likes of 'Jail House Rock' and 'A Little Less Conversation', accompanied with a buffet of sandwiches and Elvis cupcakes.
