Activities at Cheverton Lodge Care Home

Cheverton Lodge would like to thank everyone who has donated for St Andrew's Church Meals Project and Hive foodbank.

After the Communion Service, Vicar Steve Clarke joined residents for a cuppa and cakes and received the donations collected at Cheverton Lodge.

At Cheverton Lodge we only celebrate fun, cute witches!

We've all had so much fun dressing up and enjoying the treats!

Happy Halloween!

At Cheverton Lodge, we hold a social event every week where residents can gather together to socialise. Recently, we had a cheese & wine tasting evening. Residents, friends and relatives tasted different types of cheese and washed them down with some delicious wine.

Nancy and Kathy had fun playing Emperor Nero with grapes.

Cheverton Lodge Care Home, welcomed Counsellor Nurullah Turan, Islington Commissioner for Older Peoples Service, Sophia Stevens, Islington Commissioning, and lodge, Tina Jegede Lead Nurse Clinical Standards and Quality Assurance Islington and Whittington Health.

We were happy to show them around our recently refurbished home (WOWED!). They met with residents, which included our oldest, J.S. 102 years young and family members. Earl Elliott, General Manager, and Nurse Livia Somesan expressed their great appreciation, for the invaluable support that care homes in Islington receive from the Council.

Silver Sunday has become a National day in our Calendar. This is to remember and celebrate our older generation and their contribution to society.

We made sure our residents had a lovely afternoon with live entertainment and delicious cakes! Thank you to everyone who came along.

Cheverton Lodge recently presented Peninim with a cheque for £750 to be used towards a retreat for women. Peninim supports physically disabled women and girls and those with life-long medical conditions through the provision of accessible programmes and services, designed to improve their lives and promote social integration within the wider community. They offer workshops, retreats, friendship groups and comparison ships and is working towards offering support work placements. The grant had been awarded by Barchester’s Charitable Foundation, a charity that helps older people and adults with a disability or mental health problems across England, Scotland and Wales by offering grants to help people connect or re-connect with others in their local community. The care home welcomed Leah Weingarten from Peninim to a small gathering in the home to receive the cheque and celebrate being awarded the grant. Leah Weingarten, Main Volunteer' said “We are so very grateful for the donation from Barchester’s Charitable Foundation, it went towards a retreat we held and was attended by 20 women. For many, it was the first time they had been able to leave their home since being in lockdown.” Earl Elliott General Manager at Cheverton Lodge said: “We are always keen to show as much support as we can to local charities. Charities like Peninim are so important to our local community and has enabled women to meet others, build friendships and enrich their lives.”
