Activities at Shelburne 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 Shelburne Lodge Care Home
Flower Arranging
Our residents here at Shelburne Lodge have been enjoying a group flower arranging class. As Spring is just around the corner we thought it was a fantastic idea to start arranging some blooms! Our residents not only enjoy arranging the flowers but also admiring them in our social areas and their bedrooms.
Charity Donation
Here at Shelburne Lodge we would like to say a Big Thank You to Barchester Charity Foundation as they have recently awarded a grant of £500 to The Hairoun Elderly Day Centre in High Wycombe towards activity classes for isolated elderly members of this charity and our General Manager visited the group to present them the cheque.
Valentines Day
Here at Shelburne Lodge we have been celebrating Valentines Day across the home. Our residents have enjoyed a three course meal followed by a professional singer performing to finish of the special day. At Shelburne Lodge we have many couples that live together or frequently visit their life long partners, for Valentine’s Day it was fantastic to hear their secrets on a successful happy marriage!
Valentines Trail
Here at Shelburne Lodge we have been spreading the love around Wycombe in order to celebrate Valentines Day this week. In order to celebrate Valentines Day with us here at Shelburne Lodge follow our Valentines Trail around the town. If you are lucky enough to find our posters hidden around town; bring it to our care home for a prize! We look forward to welcoming you into our home and spreading the love this Valentine’s Day.
Water Colour Art Class
Here at Shelburne Lodge, we had a wonderful Art Class with Rose, one of our amazing family members. Rose spent the afternoon talking to us about using water colours, looking at form and shadows to help our residents to make beautiful pictures. The residents loved this activity.
Long Service Award
Here at Shelburne Lodge we have been busy celebrating a significant milestone. One of our Team Leaders, Nadia is celebrating a Long Service Award for 15 years of outstanding service. We witnessed a heart warming celebration, as colleagues, family members, and friends came together to express their heartfelt thanks to Nadia.
