Activities at Cheverton Lodge Care Home
Our Activities Coordinators are committed to organising a mix of activities and events for residents and the local community to get involved in, including trips out to local places of interest in our minibus and visits from entertainers and musicians, as well as art therapy, flower arranging, Exercise to music and quizzes. It is important to us that each individual who we support can get as much from these as they can, so we try our best to arrange activities that reflect their interests and capabilities as best as possible, and encourage them to participate in any way they can. We also encourage relatives to join in with activities and events as often as they can.
Cara Nutt
I joined Cheverton Lodge in 2024 as an Activity Coordinator. I completed a Health and social care level 2 and performing arts at college. I have worked as an activity coordinator in a care home setting for over 5 years. I love my role, the passion and drive it gives me to ensure everyone receives a fun and fulfilled lifestyle, which is person centred to them.
I love being creative, I sing in my spare time alongside playing the electric guitar, piano and also writing my own music. I look forward to my journey here at Cheverton lodge, and bringing lots of fun!

Life at Cheverton Lodge Care Home
At the Hart of Art
Cheverton Lodge care home in Islington recently presented Hart Club with a cheque for £500 towards their Art School with a difference project. Hart Club is a gallery, creative workspace and community organisation based in London. Hart Club’s mission is to champion neurodiversity within the arts. They actively facilitate collaboration to explore the benefits of creative exchange. Hart Club provides a platform for the artists they work with to access creative and financial recognition for work that so often goes unseen. By providing a public facing platform they aim to encourage conversation around diversity and inclusion in the Arts and beyond.
The magic of dance.
Petronella has been part of the Cheverton Lodge family for more than a decade and residents really enjoy her dance therapy sessions every Thursday. They are really fun and uplifting and residents of all abilities can take part.
The Cheverton Lodge Gardening Club
The Cheverton Lodge Gardening Club is lead by our green fingered General Manager Earl Elliott and they were busy this week.

National Fish and Chip Day
The best fish & chips in London, served here at Cheverton Lodge. We all had a great day celebrating National Fish and Chip Day.
