Activities at White Lodge Care Home

White Lodge residents had a lovely relaxing first knit and natter morning of the year. There was lots of knitting and plenty of chat all with morning coffee and tea.

Santa Clause is coming to town, well in this case to the farm! What a great visit, along with his elves Santa personally delivered gifts to every resident at White Lodge.

White Lodge residents thoroughly enjoyed a concert from singing duo Mini Concerts a fantastic variety of songs from traditional carols to Christmas carols. There was lots of toe tapping and singing along.

White Lodge residents have so enjoyed reading the Christmas cards from volunteers and the local community. Thank you so much to everyone who has taken the time and trouble to write to us and to the children who have created such beautiful cards.

Residents, staff, family and friends gathered for the switching on of the White Lodge outdoor Christmas lights. It looks beautiful now once the light fades outside you can see all the different colours around the roundabout. We welcomed Jessica Fay Long to sing and announce the countdown and Glamorose Cakes so everyone could have a treat along with hot drinks to keep everyone warm!

White Lodge have been delighted to support Purton and District Age Concern for the past few years by donating Christmas Hampers. The hampers will be distributed by volunteers from Age Concern over the next few days to older people in the local community. They look wonderful with activities assistant Lucy and residents putting them together over the past few days. Thank you to Peter Berry who is Chairman of Purton and District Age Concern for collecting the hampers and all that you do to support older people in the area.
