Activities at Bryn Ivor Lodge Care Home
Our teams are trained to enrich the lives of residents through stimulating the mind, body and soul, and taking the time to learn about each person to ensure everyone receives support that adds enrichment to their life.
Activities are an integral part of life at our care home. We want to ensure that the people we support have as much fun as possible during their time with us, so it’s important that our activities programme is created with the interests of residents in mind. Our skilled Activities Coordinators bring a certain uniqueness to the home that can’t be found anywhere else, and which is reflected in the activities they organise.
Sophia Reed
Hi, I'm Sophia, the Activities Coordinator at Bryn Ivor Lodge. My top priority is making sure our residents feel happy and cosy in their homes. I'm a super crafty person and love coming up with new and exciting activities for everyone to enjoy. When I'm not busy planning, you can usually spot me outside tending to the garden - especially when the sun is shining!
Activities and Events Partnerships
As part of our bespoke life-enrichment programmes, we host a number of live virtual events in the home on a regular basis through a number of partnerships with places of interest and world class performance companies
Life at Bryn Ivor Lodge Care Home
Garden Centre Trip
The sun has been shining down on us here at Bryn Ivor Lodge with a feel that spring is on the way.
It was the perfect opportunity to hop on the mini bus and take a trip to the Local Garden Centre.
We had a brilliant time looking at all the beautiful plants and flowers that are coming into bloom. There was of course a stop at the coffee shop for some delicious cake and coffee.
We are looking forward to the warmer months and seeing our own garden at Bryn Ivor Lodge in bloom.
Valentines Celebrations!
We have had a brilliant time for our Valentines Celebration it was a week full of overflowing with love and happiness!
We enjoyed a Disco DJ playing all our favorite songs from vinyls for our Valentines Dance! We’ve been making wonderful memories, sharing heartwarming smiles, and bursting into laughter at our fun-filled gatherings. We've decorated beautiful cupcakes and watched the children dance and play at our Ranntastic baby and toddler group!
We sang our hearts out when one of our top performers, Rob, came to sing all the love song classics for us! From delightful surprises to sweet treats, every moment has been a chance to spread joy and create unforgettable connections with our residents!
Community Bingo Night!
Our community bingo night was truly unforgettable this month!
As always the atmosphere was brilliant with plenty of laughter and bingo shouts throughout the home.
The prizes up for grabs brought out everyone's competitive side , and every win sparked cheers!
It was a night filled with fun! Everyone is welcome to come and join us on March 7th for our next community Bingo night!
Pudding Club at Bryn Ivor Lodge!
Pudding Club was a hit, attracting 25 enthusiastic residents, families, and visitors! We were thrilled to have two local councillors, Trevor Watkins and Allan Screen, join us—thank you both for your time and incredible energy.
The competition was fierce, but in the end, the zingy Key Lime Pie took home the gold, followed closely by the delightful Manchester Puffs filled with jam and coconut for second place. And let's not forget the scrumptious vanilla cheesecake topped with a mixed berry compote, which brought up the rear in style.
I'm excited to report that we had ZERO leftovers! What a fantastic day of fun and flavour.
Ranntastic Baby and Toddler Group
Another busy Friday with Ranntastic!
At Bryn Ivor Lodge, we are lucky enough to host a regular baby and toddler group that has be come the highlight of our week for both our residents and the little ones.
The smiles on the faces for both young and old speak for themselves. Whether its a game of peek-a-boo or singing along to nursery rhymes, these moments have become an invaluable part of our community.
Up Beat Drumming Fitness Class
Our drumming class was absolutely electric!
We rocked the rhythm, banging our sticks and grooving to the beat! It was a high-energy, exhilarating fitness experience that left us buzzing!
We let the classic Rock Anthems whisk us away into Rock Heaven!
