Activities at Werrington Lodge Care Home

Our specialist activities staff are committed to organising a mix of activities and events for residents and the local community to get involved in, including trips out to local places of interest in our minibus and visits from entertainers and musicians. It is important to us that each individual who we support can get as much from these as possible, so we try our best to arrange activities that reflect their interests and capabilities as best as possible and encourage them to participate in any way they can. We also encourage relatives to join with activities and events as often as they can.

Michelle's Petting Zoo

On the 19th April we had a visit from the wonderful Michelle with her petting zoo.

We had rabbits, guinea pigs, a hamster, dogs, a cat and a chicken.. they are all so cuddly and lovable.️

Thank you so much, all the animals had such a positive impact on our residents.

Happy Easter

Happy Easter to all our friends and family, today was very special day we made Easter Bonnets, did Easter arts and crafts and had a visit from the Easter Bunny who gave us a Chocolate egg.

We took photos of most of our residents so if you would like the photo of your loved one please drop us a message and we can send it across to you.

Baking Club - Shortbread Day!

We have had a fantastic start to the New Year here at Werrington Lodge and just look at what we made today! 

Our Chef Team helped prep the mixture but our residents really got their hands stuck in and enjoyed making Shortbread of all shapes and sizes. Needless to say we sure had lots of fun!
