Activities at Corrina Lodge Care Home

We understand that the people we support have passions and interests that could be difficult to pursue after moving into a care home – but that doesn’t mean we don’t encourage them to try! Some hobbies can define a person, so our Activities Coordinators are dedicated to ensuring that everyone we support is able to do what makes them happy to the best of their abilities. Social events are organised with individual tastes in mind and with the idea that residents have the opportunity to try new and exciting things.

Sweet Treats

We all enjoyed a sweet treat from the Corrina Lodge sweets trolley to take our minds off the weather. It definitely brightened up everyone's afternoon. We also want to wish a happy birthday to our lovely staff members, Denisa and Sharon.

Supporting our 'Garden Project'

To support our garden project Residents and staff have been busy designing and making  some clay tiles towards a piece of artwork we are creating for the  garden.
