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.

Celebrating Chinese New Year

This year we celebrated Chinese new year by decorated the whole home had a delicious traditional feast of dishes all prepared and served by the chef. We gave out treats of fortune cookies and some even used chop sticks for the first time too. After lunch we watched videos of traditional lion and dragon dances and spoke about the culture. 

Pamper Time

Even thought the hairdresser is unable to visit currently we make sure that everyone gets pampered. Our team always step up and lend a hand. These ladies felt super glamorous after their treat in the hairdressers chair.

Special Birthday Celebrations

We make sure every birthday is special and milestones even more so. This lovely lady celebrated her day with a beautiful cake, photos of family and of course a glass of fizz.

Flower arranging Masterclass

We all love the smell of beautiful fresh flowers throughout the home. Every other week our residents enjoy nothing more than collecting, arranging and then displaying some stunning bouquets for everyone to enjoy.
