Activities at Corrina Lodge Care Home

We understand that the people we support have passions and interests that could be difficult to pursue after moving into a care home – but that doesn’t mean we don’t encourage them to try! Some hobbies can define a person, so our Activities Coordinators are dedicated to ensuring that everyone we support is able to do what makes them happy to the best of their abilities. Social events are organised with individual tastes in mind and with the idea that residents have the opportunity to try new and exciting things.

Corrina Carers Rock

Carers week is an important part of our life here at Corrina Lodge, where we get a chance to say thank you to each and every carer who forms part of an amazing team.  
Our carers received a certificate of thanks, a small glass of fizz and of course ample amounts of chocolate too!

We had some our wonderful residents take part in the celebrations too. 

Thank you all carers.

Simply The Best

We had a blast celebrating our Carers during Carers week.

We are proud of our team who are dedicated, passionate and driven. 

There were genuine smiles all round from our carers and amazing residents who make this house our home.

A huge heartfelt thank you to all of our amazing carers from the Corrina Lodge Community!

Plant Power

We had the privilege of welcoming Life’s Little Bugs to talk about the amazing health benefits of plants. 
We then made dandelion and nettle tea freshly picked from our garden. One of the many benefits of plant tea is being high in antioxidants and a powerful anti-inflammatory too. Plants really are magical!

Off Fishing...

Our wonderful resident John has been a keen fisherman for many years. Enjoying lake, river & sea fishing, John won numerous awards and trophies for his cast skills! Our General Manager Dumitru also shares the same passion for fishing, so was thrilled to be able to support John and make his dream come true.  What an amazing day and scenery to enjoy. Let the fishing competition commence!

Check Mate

Our chess playing resident Brian, got to test out his skills recently with other like-minded players. Keeping mentally alert and enjoying a friendly game with others who enjoy the challenge of the board, it was a wonderful way to spend a morning. Whilst this wasn't a championship game, the stakes were high with pride being the all important prize. Check mate!

Ding Dong the bells...

Corrina Lodge residents were treated to an afternoon of chimes and chorus through the very talented handbell choir. The residents enjoyed the soothing sound and gentle acoustics, whilst being taken through a selection of song - what a treat!
