Activities at Ritson Lodge Care Home
Our home is always full of life, and we can thank our wonderful Activities Coordinators for this. Dedication to creating a unique and interesting activities programme is what sets us apart from other homes. We always take into consideration that some people would prefer to pursue their own interests, which is why our team strive to incorporative activities that cater to a wide range of tastes and hobbies. Our trips out are always fun and exciting as well, and residents are guaranteed to return with stories to tell their loved ones!

Life at Ritson Lodge Care Home
Smoothie Time
Fruits and Smoothies are a quick and easy way to get vital nutrients - they also contribute towards our 5 a day, boost our Vitamin C levels and are always a big hit with our residents here and Ritson Lodge!
Ritson Lodge are winners!
We are excited to announce that our residents here at Ritson Lodge are winners of the Barchester internal #BarchesterBouquets competition.
Following the tips and techniques learnt during an amazing virtual sensory session with the Wallace Collection, staff and residents had the opportunity to put their skills to a test, create beautiful artworks and enter the competition.
The theme of the competition was ‘Impossible Bouquet’ and all winners were judged and carefully selected by members of the Wallace Collection. The judges particularly liked that each flower in our home entry was painted individually and bright, autumnal colours were used.
Congratulations to all of our residents and this fantastic collective achievement!
Ritz Inn Afternoons
What better way to spend an Autumn afternoon than with a glass of Wine, delicious Cheese and nibbles.
Residents love spending time in our very own pub - the Ritz Inn as you can see!
Svelta takes us around the world!
Svelta took us all on a virtual romantic holiday today with songs from around the world on her Accordion. Residents were singing, staff were dancing and we all had a thoroughly super time!
Autumn Walks
Our residents at Ritson Lodge always enjoy a walk out and about in the local community and the Autumnal colours on this occasion were just spectacular!
Happy Birthday Jean and thank you Fey Bedford Dance School too!
What a lovely afternoon we had here at Ritson Lodge celebrating Jean’s birthday and watching students from the Fey Bedford Stage dancing school performing for us!
Thank you girls - you were absolutely fantastic and very Happy Birthday to Jean too from all of the staff and fellow residents here at Ritson Lodge.
