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.

Life at White Lodge Care Home
Daffodil Picking
Residents took advantage of the beautiful blue skies at White Lodge taking a stroll around the grounds. While outside we picked daffodils to dispaly inside. We are so fortunate to have such extensive grounds with seasonal plants and produce.
Resident Pianists Entertains
It was heads down for the Monopoly Word Search. All the residents enjoyed the challenge, followed by afternoon tea accompanied by the beautiful playing of one of our resident pianists.
Rainy Day Activities
It is fair to say it rained today! The team have done a great job working with the residents to find some indoor activities. On Memory Lane puzzles were popular with some residents working together while others read the daily papers or did some crochet.
Fun Weekend!
It was another busy weekend at White Lodge with lots of fun! The team love to see smiling faces and it was great for them to also join in the dancing. Barchester subscribe to Oomph Wellness which offers a range of wellbeing resources and the residents really enjoy the activity and exercise sessions as you can see from the photos. The residents really enjoy the variety and group activities.
White Lodge Wildlife
This fabulous squirrel photo was taken by our Deputy Manager, Ionana. White Lodge has so much wildlife we all enjoy. Residents and staff often spot deer in the fields, rabbits bouncing along, as well as the many squirrels there is also a wonderful variety of birds.
Winter Walks
White Lodge residents are enjoying winter walks around the grounds and enjoying the crisp winter air. We get all wrapped up and chat as we walk, it is nice to see the spring bulbs emerging. We look forward to continuing all the great work on our gardens started last year.
