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
Sunshine in the Garden
With all of the glorious weather we're having this week, a group of our residents and their family decided to make the most of it and spend this morning in the sunshine! With 4 generations between the oldest and youngest of the group, everyone took the opportunity to sit and have a good chat and enjoy quality time together.
It's days like these we're so grateful for our beautiful gardens and outdoor space!
Happy 90th Birthday Joyce!
Happy birthday to our lovely Joyce who celebrated 90 years. Joyce spent a lovely morning with family to enjoy the occasion with style, while she was inundated with messages from other residents and the team wishing her a happy birthday!
Joyce and other residents even enjoyed a games afternoon together to make the most of her special day.
Musical Moments
We love a visit from Vicky at Musical Moments at Lawton Manor! Vicky makes sure there's a way for all of our residents to get involved, to sing and move all at the same time, complete with instruments. Not only do we have the best time, but we've also discovered some of our residents are natural music makers! Maybe we should start a band...
Thanks again Vicky, and we can't wait for the next session!
Happy 102nd Birthday Eric!
We celebrated a very special birthday this week, as Eric turned 102! So we held a special tea party for Eric and his family.
Several generations of Eric's family joined him to celebrate such a special day. On behalf of all residents and staff at Lawton Manor, we all wish Eric a very Happy Birthday.
Virtual Tour of Mayfair
Residents across our services had a fantastic time joining Mandy Morrow for a virtual walking tour to learn about the ‘Herstory’ of Mayfair. The Mayfair of Nightingales may be long gone but it still holds a 20th century charm. Birthplace to the late Queen Elizabeth II, home to one of WWII's most decorated female war heroes and a tale of a wealthy Aristocrat and one of France's favourite designers.
We were delighted to take a walk down memory lane and discover stories from one of London's most iconic areas. The experience was truly enjoyed by all.
Singing the Day Away
We had the wonderful Becca Gee in to sing for us, and everyone from our residents to relatives and even staff had an absolute ball!
Becca covered some of our favourite hits from back in the day, and every face in the room was plastered with a smile. We all had a dance and sang along to classics such as The Drifters' - Kissin' In the Back Row of the Movies, which had everyone clapping along.
Thank you so much for a wonderful afternoon Becca, and we can't wait until next time!
