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
The Smoothie Experience
Residents have enjoyed an afternoon full of new flavours and textures: pineapple & banana, mango & coconut, peach & mandarin, strawberry & banana, and the traditional banana milkshake.
Cheese & Wine
Every week, we hold a social event where residents can gather together to socialise. Last week we had a cheese & wine tasting evening, where residents tasted different types of cheese and washed them down with some delicious wine. Cheers!
Rock 'n' Roll Afternoon
The rock 'n' roll-themed day saw residents and staff dance to the likes of 'Jail House Rock' and 'A Little Less Conversation', accompanied with a buffet of sandwiches and Elvis cupcakes.
Baby Fever
Residents and staff gave Daniela and Anda—mums to be—a wonderful pink themed surprise baby shower. Residents enjoyed an afternoon of gift giving, tea and cake. We all wish them all the best and very much look forward to meeting their baby girls!
National Dog Day
To celebrate the day, residents enjoyed visits from their favourite dogs during the day. While Muffin chose Joan’s lap, Tino preferred playing with a ball and a lovely afternoon tea in the garden with Marcela and Jane.
Representing Our Residents
Congratulations to our new resident ambassador, Helen, who received her official badge from General Manager, Earl.
