Activities at Rose 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!

A Visit from the Kids

A Visit from the Kids

We were lucky enough to have children from both Wouldham and Burham primary schools to help with our community garden project. They helped with weeding and planting bulbs and plants. The flower beds are gradually being transformed with the help of the children, who not only brightened up the courtyard, but also brought energy and fun to the home. We are very grateful to both schools and also to our volunteer, Dennis Worcester, for all their continued support of this special project.
