Activities at Lawton Manor 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.
Chloe Cameron
This is Chloe and she is our Activities Coordinator here at Lawton Manor. Her job is to physically and mentally stimulate our residents by offering a range of activities for them to enjoy. She wants to get everyone involved and make our home community and atmosphere as positive and welcoming as possible.
Making sure that our residents have things to do that they really enjoy doing is something that Chloe holds very close to her heart. It is so important to make sure that they are happy and enjoy all of the activities and events that we host for them. A lot of our residents also enjoy our special trips out on our Minibus as we create new, special memories together.

Life at Lawton Manor Care Home
It's National Picnic Week!
To celebrate National Picnic Week, Residents enjoyed a day trip to a local beauty spot in the care home's mini bus with full support of familiar Carers and the home's Activities Coordinator Liz
The walk around a local Nature reserve was superb, the sun was shining and we met some lovely dogs along the way.
Chef Nick made a tasty picnic for everyone which was enjoyed under a shaded tree.
We are very lucky to have such landscape and beauty in our local area to truly appreciate.

The Unconventional Menagerie
Residents have had an amazing afternoon with Christian of the "Unconventional Menagerie" who brought along several of his animals for us to meet. Residents held and admired some wonderful creatures including a very pretty chameleon.
Firm favourites of David's were three snakes he enjoyed posing with!
On Safari
We enjoyed a group trip to Knowsley Safari Park in our minibus
In the bright sunshine, all the Animals were out for us to see!
A family of Lions blocked our path but we enjoyed watching them at such a close range, It really was a lovely day and our residents enjoyed a picnic lunch.
National Trust talk
Our homes had a fantastic time joining National Trust Talks Service team at Cliveden House for an inspirational talk on Nancy Astor – the first woman to take a seat in the House of Commons.
Our residents had the opportunity to learn more about the fascinating life of Nancy and her political career. As the first women MP, she experienced both attention and scandal throughout her life, which led to many triumphs and numerous disasters. The talk was truly enjoyed by all.
