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!

Horse Therapy

Residents at Ritson Lodge had some strange visitors to the home this week - these gentle giants won over the hearts of the residents and staff. Horse therapy will now be taking place every month at Ritson Lodge.

Mediterranean Day!

To offset the cold weather here at Ritson Lodge, we had a Mediterranean Day! Our residents made flags which were used to decorated a buffet table with lots of different Mediterranean foods - Spanish, Greek and Italian food were all on offer, cooked by our fabulous Head Chef. We then had an informative slide show from a member of the community who taught us all about the Mediterranean lifestyle. Everybody had a great day!

Open Day at Ritson Lodge

On Saturday, Ritson Lodge care home opened its doors to the community for their Open Day! We had lots of visitors who wanted to have a look around and meet the team. We also had a lovely tea party for the visitors with live entertainment and dancing!

Christmas and New Years Party

Christmas is a very important time of the year at Ritson Lodge. We make sure that we have lovely decorated trees, lots of Christmas lights and of course - the Christmas Party!

Christmas Spectacular Show!

Ritson Lodge hosted their Christmas Spectacular Show at the Hopton Village Hall. Residents, families and lots of friends from the Hopton community enjoyed this free festive event. The performers did brilliantly and had everybody laughing and singing along!
