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.

Life at Corrina Lodge Care Home
Anyone for Tennis?
Staying active is really important to our residents here at Corrina Lodge and we have a selection of exercise sessions to promote physical fitness and wellbeing. We couldn’t let Wimbledon go by without getting in the spirit and all had a great time playing tennis with a twist. The balloon tennis has since become a firm favourite and there is definitely an air of competitiveness in the room when we play.
Resident also benefit and enjoy our weekly seated yoga session with our qualified instructor Emma. Residents say “we love the opportunity to attend a weekly class and Emma will often compliment us on our progress and development. There is a definite benefit in attending the sessions regularly.”
Ladies Day at Ascot
The Corrina Lodge ladies celebrated Ladies Day at Royal Ascot by getting creative making some Ascot worthy fascinators and hats. All of our lovely ladies looked wonderful and received some deserved compliments. As it was such a lovely day we thought it was completely acceptable to enjoy some cocktails too. Here at Corrina Lodge we believe that taking opportunities to be creative and very importantly to have fun are a must. Cheers!
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!
