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

Activities Coordinator

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

National Vegetarian Week

Team members and residents at Lawton Manor marked National Vegetarian Week by taking part in exciting virtual events and enjoying a variety of delicious vegetarian meals.   Apart from tasting meat-free meals, prepared by the home’s talented chef, the residents had the opportunity to learn more about the importance of incorporating vegetarian food into their diets. And also to find out more about the positive environmental effects of eating vegetarian.

National Vegetarian Week is an annual event to educate people about the benefits of a meat-free diet. During National Vegetarian Week people are encouraged to try going meat-free for a week, with vibrant and exciting vegetarian recipes being promoted and shared.

Happy Scenes

These were the happy scenes at Lawton Manor as hairdressers were finally allowed back into the home.

Just like the rest of the country, residents had been waiting patiently for months to get their hair styled and so they were delighted to be able to book in for a long overdue cut and blow dry.

Residents enjoy walk around the lake

Residents at Lawton Manor took advantage of the early Spring sunshine to take a drip out on the mini-bus to enjoy a walk.  Residents, Michael and Lesley both enjoyed a walk around Westport Lake, they enjoyed feeding the ducks and geese and both agreed the weather had been pleasantly kind.  Residents are looking forward to their next trip out!
