Activities at Marnel 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.
Marek Manteufel & Theresa Connor
We both joined Marnel a while ago and we are very excited to be part of such a proactive and dedicated team. There are lots of ideas and innovations, all to enhance quality of life of our residents. Every day is different and to understand the needs of our residents, building relationship with them and keeping in touch with their families and friends, is the most important and rewarding job we could have wish for.

Life at Marnel Lodge Care Home
Summer Fête
Marnel Lodge had a wonderful Summer Fête! Sangeeta opened it this year and donated her fee to Harefield Hospital. John, who used to be a patient there, accepted it on behalf of the hospital. He also lived at Marnel Lodge whilst waiting for his transplant, but is now well and living in his own flat.
Residents, staff and friends dressed up as pirates and there were lots of fun events and activities going on throughout the day. It may have rained, but you can never stop folks at Marnel Lodge from having fun!
A Teddy Bear's Picnic
Daisy Chain came to visit us all for a teddy bear's picnic. We all had fun with the 'hook-a-teddy bear' game and residents enjoyed watching them. Afterwards, we all had an ice cream and played more games.
Celebrating Hard Work
The support team at Marnel Lodge had a lovely day enjoying their cupcakes that they received in recognition of all the hard work they do.
Heart & Soul Award - May
Subarna Garbuja won May's Heart & Soul award here at Marnel Lodge for always having a smile on her face, even when it's raining outside.
Wedding Bells at Marnel Lodge
Danielle enjoyed her hen afternoon at Marnel Lodge with residents and staff before she got married. We all enjoyed cupcakes and wished her the very best.
Sending our Love
Staff and residents at Marnel Lodge showed their support for Manchester by holding a minute silent for the victims who died in the attack. We sent our thoughts and blessings to the families.
