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
U3A Book Club
Cheverton Lodge was home to an unusual gathering on Wednesday 18th April: one of the Islington groups of the U3A Book Club asked if it would be possible to hold their monthly meeting at the home. Their regular hostess was away and an alternative venue needed to be found. The event was a great success, with eleven members attending. The ground floor lounge was arranged with the necessary furnishings and. light refreshments.
It was a pleasure hosting them!
St Patrick's Day
We celebrated St Patrick's Day with a lovely lunch and a musical show by Jamie Cameron. Everybody enjoyed it and sang along to traditional Irish songs.
Mother's Day
We know how important it is for family to spend time with each other, so for Mother's Day, we hosted an afternoon tea party for residents and invited their family and friends to join them. We had a great time sharing memories over a cup of tea with cakes and sandwiches.
Ball Games Allowed
At Cheverton, residents love exercising, so we hold classes every day. On Wednesdays, Audrey comes to visit her great great grandfather, Lawrence, and is also the host for the giant ball game. We all love her!
101st Birthday Celebrations
We celebrated Lawrence's 101st birthday recently in style. Lots of friends, family members, residents and staff members joined us to enjoy the party.
Valentine's Day
Bryan Shaw visited us to celebrate Valentine's Day with his Valentine's Special Musical Show, which was followed by an afternoon tea party.
