Activities at Cepen Lodge Care Home

Cepen Lodge residents had a wonderful weekend celebrating the Coronation of King Charles III and Queen Camila.  The celebrations began with a cruise show performed by Toby from Mini Concerts.  Everyone donned their homemade crowns and Union Jack hats! 

The day of the Coronation began with a buck’s fizz continental breakfast.  Residents and staff greatly enjoyed watching the service and pageantry in Westminster Abbey followed by the parade.  In the afternoon pianist Kieran performed popular songs with residents and staff dancing and enjoying the party atmosphere.  There were even drinks served by their majesties!  The weekend ended with everyone settling down to watch the Coronation concert. 

The Cepen Lodge activities team have worked so hard decorating the whole of the home ready for the King's Coronation it looks fantastic.  With the Coronation only a few days away residents enjoyed a traditional high tea and sing-a-long.  

Cepen Lodge's Easter Bunny, managers and residents went to visit the children at Canon’s House Children’s Respite Home in Devizes and deliver some Easter hampers!  Our residents even got to meet 2 ponies whilst there! We all had a lovely time meeting the staff and children at the home and hearing all about the amazing work they do. We look forward to visiting again soon, and welcoming you all to Cepen Lodge.

Everyone had a wonderful time at Cepen Lodge’s Easter Fete.  It was a fun packed afternoon for residents, families, friends and visitors and it was wonderful to see everyone.  There was a variety of stalls including our Easter tombola, Body Shop, lots of cakes and a bar!  The sun was out so it was great to enjoy our gardens for the first time this year.

Ronnie and Reggie are possibly the most adorable and cutest lambs you could ever meet, thank you to Chloe's Mobile Farm for bringing in our very special spring visitors. At 5 weeks old they are absolute bundles of joy. They are Greyfaced Dartmoor sheep, a rare breed who have the most amazing tight curly coat.

Ronnie and Reggie confidently walked around the home and were very happy to spend time with residents in the lounges and in their rooms as well as being very happy to be cuddled. There are so very special photos to enjoy we thought we would share them all!

Anita continued the spring theme with the start of our run up to Easter fun with a buffett tea on Memory Lane. The dining room was beautifully decorated with music playing to add to the atmosphere. Another wonderful afternoon at Cepen Lodge.

What a fabulous start to the weekend with an amazing performance from the Trowbridge and Chippenham Rock Choir.  Cepen Lodge residents absolutely loved it and they had a great chat with residents as well, we can't wait to see them again soon.
