Activities at Bamfield Lodge Care Home
Our home is always full of life, and we can thank our wonderful Activities Coordinators for this. Dedication to creating a unique and interesting activities programme is what sets us apart from other homes. We always take into consideration that some people would prefer to pursue their own interests, which is why our team strive to incorporative activities that cater to a wide range of tastes and hobbies. Our trips out are always fun and exciting as well, and residents are guaranteed to return with stories to tell their loved ones!

Life at Bamfield Lodge Care Home
Labour MP
Labour MP Karin Smyth came to visit Bamfield Lodge on 4th October for a chat with General Manager Kelly Irwin, and to meet staff and residents. Lots of topics were discussed from housing for residents, coping through Covid with staff and much more in between. Karin was presented with a beautiful chocolate cake covered with strawberries.
Alive activities
Alive activities have kindly arranged some free sessions of exercise with our residents, they loved the singing and movement along with sensory therapy through the feathers.
Cookery Club
Cookery club has relaunched with our new Head Chef Louis Powell and he kicked off by doing bakery on our Memory Lane. Bakery and cooking is a really crucial reminiscence activity, thoroughly enjoyed and the benefits included the cake at the end!
