Activities at Cheverton Lodge Care Home
Our teams are trained to enrich the lives of residents through stimulating the mind, body and soul, and taking the time to learn about each person to ensure everyone receives support that adds enrichment to their life.
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.

Remembrance Sunday at Cheverton Lodge
On Sunday 12th November, the National Service of Remembrance was held at the Cenotaph on Whitehall. The service commemorates the contribution of British and Commonwealth military and civilian servicemen and women involved in the two world wars and later conflicts.
Residents at Cheverton Lodge watched the service together with loved ones. We talked about what Remembrance Sunday meant to us and decorated the home in poppies as a sign of respect. Our chef Kamila made lovely poppy cup cakes for us to enjoy.
