Activities at Canmore Lodge Care Home
Our Activities Coordinators are committed to organising a variety of events as well as offering tailored programmes to stimulate residents both mentally and physically. There are regular outings in the minibus to local places of interest, such as trips to the beach for ice cream, pub visits for a pint, and regular trips to Dobbies for tea and cakes. Georgie Girl, an old English sheep dog, also stops by the home on regular basis for pet therapy. Musical entertainment is a big hit with residents as well, so we book fan favourites to come and play at the home each month. At Canmore, relatives are always encouraged to join in on the fun too.

Life at Canmore Lodge Care Home
Celebrating Easter in Style
We celebrated Easter in style with a whole host of themed activities and egg-cellent entertainment. Our residents enjoyed making Easter chicks, attending a church service, hot cross buns; a special visit from the Nursery where Residents judged the Easter bonnet competition. As always, we’ve had an amazing time.
Pamper Sessions
At Canmore Lodge we have unisex hair salon where our residents can indulge in some pampering and real relaxation. Our residents truly enjoy our regular pamper sessions and their new hair styles are always amazing. Here is Fiona looking fabulous after a visit to the salon with Aston.
Celebrating Van Gough's Birthday
Last week we hosted a lovely art session celebrating Vincent Van Gogh birthday on the 30th March. Residents were inspired to create their own sunflower masterpieces which was truly enjoyed by all and put a smile on everyone’s face.
Cycling at Canmore Lodge
Residents at Canmore Lodge have been back out in the glen for some fresh air and fun on wheels. Cycling without age is a great community service that brings the Global Trishaw movement to Dunfermline's Pittencreiff Park. At Canmore Lodge we are happy to be booked back up for the spring months ahead and residents cannot wait to get back out on their next cycle.
