Activities at Lydfords 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.

Hello,
I'm Sue and I am one of the Activity Coordinators here at Lydfords!
As part of the Lifestyle Enrichment team I will be organising daily activities & I am responsible for keeping everyone busy and engaged in and around our beautiful home and gardens, as well as getting out and about as much as possible.
I will ensure our residents have varied activities to choose from each day.
I enjoy enriching our residents lives, creating memories and friendships.

Planning for Care Advice Event
The locally community were invited in to Lydfords to meet with SOLLA (Society of Later Life Advisors) Accredited Financial Advisor, Peter Morris of Cranwells Wealth Solutions, who discussed how to plan for care.

All of the attendees told us how helpful the session had been and we hope to hold more again in the near future.
