Activities at White Lodge Care Home

Our Activities Coordinators here at White Lodge enjoy the fulfillment of helping residents feel important and a part of something. Meaningful moments are created through laughter and comfort. A varied activities programme is offered for the betterment of residents' bodies and minds, including music for health, 'Oomph' sessions and chair Zumba, in addition to coffee and cake groups that all inevitably lead to giggles and old fashioned singalongs. Also, we organise parties, trips out, walks in the country, bus outings and wonderful entertainers to visit our home. A sneaky tipple is always welcomed with cheese and crackers and, at the end of the day, it is important to go home knowing our activities have made a difference.

Happy Easter From White Lodge

We had memorable and fun filled Easter celebrations for 2024 at White Lodge. With staff, residents and families all involved it quickly became a weekend to remember. We were also joined by the children from 19th Swindon Cub Pack, before finishing the weekend off with a visit from the Easter Bunny and and Easter Egg Hunt around our beautiful home and gardens. Thank you to everyone that made the weekend so enjoyable!

Bringing generations together

Students from Longleaze Primary School visited us to get Easter celebrations off to a flying start! Residents and children took part in Easter Egg Painting before tucking into some chocolatey treats. Thank you so much for coming and have a great Easter Holiday Longleaze!

Our mobile library swings by...

We love our monthly visit from the local Mobile Library. Residents get to climb on board and take in the huge variety of books to choose from, before deciding which ones to check out for April. See you again in a few weeks time!

Come rain or shine

With the weather not making its mind up in recent weeks, we decided that nothing would stop us getting out and about not even a bit of a rain... Fresh air is important to all of us as we all take time to get our gardens ready for the better weather (hopefully). Our life enrichment programme at White Lodge ensures a healthy balance of indoor and outdoor engagement for our residents. Come along and see what we get up to..

Grafting in the Garden

We have been busy grafting in the gardens and getting our bird feeders ready for Spring. Our beautiful surroundings deserve the best quality in food for our little visitors, so the residents have worked together with the team to provide plenty of choice and options throughout the outdoor spaces we have! Followed by a well deserved hot tea and cake break for our workers.

Food, Drinks and Memories

Residents and families joined forces with the Swindon Veterans Group at the Strawberry Thief to enjoy fine food and dining whilst reminiscing over memories and times once shared before. We love taking our residents out in the community and thank you to those that joined us. Cant wait to do it again soon!
