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
A Week at Shelburne Lodge
We have had a fun-packed few weeks. Residents have enjoyed the wonderful weather and have taken full advantage of the lovely garden, participating in activities outside in the sunshine, whilst being entertained by Nick the musician.
Gary 'Elvis' Roman has also been entertaining residents, who thoroughly enjoyed singing along to his songs and being serenaded.
Recently, Michael & Kirsty came along to the home to give a ballroom and Latin dance demonstration, which residents thought was great, and really enjoyed Kirsty's costume changes.
The Spirit of Easter
Residents & staff at Shelburne Lodge got into the spirit of Easter by holding an Easter bonnet competition. Even Gizmo, the General Manager’s dog, joined in! Residents also enjoyed being entertained by Val from Champagne Enterprise, who passed the microphone around and got everybody singing along.
Marlow Ukulele Group
Residents recently enjoyed the Marlow Ukulele Group visiting the home. They all participated in a good old singalong and had a thoroughly fun time.
Red Nose Day
Shelburne Lodge held a cake sale for Red Nose Day. Residents and staff enjoyed the yummy goodies on offer and we raised £82.16. We also had Matt Bond entertaining everyone in the afternoon.
The Spirit of Christmas
The staff and residents here at Shelburne Lodge are getting into the spirit of Christmas. We’ve recently had our annual Christmas Fair that residents, families & staff enjoyed. There was an assortment of stalls selling lovely gifts, chocolates, jewellery and cards. We also had a Christmas Raffle with residents winning most of the prizes.
We have also had a wonderful concert put on for the residents from the local primary school children with lots of singing and storytelling - the residents thoroughly enjoyed themselves!
Children in Need
Folks at Shelburne Lodge were all about Pudsey and raising money for Children in Need. Everyone participated in games of 'Pudley Winks' and 'Pudsey Hoopla'.
