Activities at Kingfisher Lodge Care Home
Activities are the cornerstone of a wholesome home experience and our Activities Coordinators are always putting their creative minds to the test by organising new and exciting social events for residents to partake in. Of course, we take into account the likes and dislikes of those we support, so if someone doesn’t feel like trying something new, there will always be something on offer to reflect their personal interests. For the people who may just prefer some peace and quiet instead, we also offer one-to-one time that can be enjoyed with a nice cup of coffee or just a simple chat – whatever they desire.
George Tantrum
Hi, I am George and I am the Activities Lead here at Kingfisher Lodge. I have worked in healthcare for over 6 years and I have a passion for enriching the lives of the people in our home. We offer a wide variety of life enrichment activities within our home, from minibus trips and group outings all the way to spending some one on one time with our residents. If you pop into the home, the chances is you’ll find me, so come say hello!

Life at Kingfisher Lodge Care Home
We Are Dementia Friends!
Regular visitors, Mike & Muriel—who are both Dementia Champions—hosted a Dementia Friends session here at Kingfisher Lodge. Everyone who attended is now a Dementia Friend!
Shannon Sing for Us
Shannon came in to sing for our Valentine's afternoon, where we served all residents and their visitors a 3-course meal.
Balloon Modelling
We were joined by a magician and had a wonderful afternoon watching him make balloon models for everyone.
Love is in the Air!
To celebrate Valentine’s Day, we invited in all of the families of residents to have a delicious 3-course meal, served by the team at Kingfisher, and accompanied with bubbly to celebrate. We followed the meal with after dinner mints and coffee, and had a lovely reminiscence session on the topic of love.
Dementia-Friendly Kingfisher
Kingfisher is a member of the Dementia Action Alliance and recently attended the annual Bath Dementia-Friendly conference. We set up a stall to speak about the great things that Kingfisher does to help those living with dementia. We have come back with lots of great new activities and ideas for the home.
Birthday Celebrations
Brian celebrated his birthday at Kingfisher with a homemade birthday cake and a party for everyone. Friends and family, as well as residents enjoyed the afternoon!
