What a brilliant time we had recently celebrating Diwali!

Residents at White Lodge helped with  decorations to mark the occasion making colourful patterned "rangoli" and electric candles at the reception to welcome the guests for the event. 

Diwali honours Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth, the lights help Lakshmi find her way into people's home. 
The chef prepared traditional Indian dishes including onion bhaji, samosa, traditional Indian cookies, Indian sweets and masala tea for all our residents and their families to enjoy!

The staff even performed a special bollywood dance for the residents with many of them swaying along to the music.

National celebrations and family-friendly events are just some of the ways that we ensure the residents at White Lodge remain connected with their loved ones and the wider community.
