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
A beautigul performance by Miranda Juliet
A fabulously festive and musical day was enjoyed by the Corrina Family who were joined by the fantastic Miranda Juliet who serenaded our residents over lunch and then performed a lounge show to all the wonderful Christmas classics, which sounded absolutely beautiful with the soft violin melody. A joyous afternoon!
Christmas Light Switch On
We had an absolutely fabulous time at our Musical Extravaganza and celebrating our Christmas Lights Switch on with our very special guest, Mayor of Camberley, Cllr Pat Tedder
We were also joined by the fantastic The Small Strings Ukulele Band, who performed a fantastic mix of tunes that got us all into the festive spirit. Such a truly magical afternoon with young and old coming together to kick off the start of our festive events.
Lest We Forget...
On Armistice Day - the 11th day of the 11th hour on the 11th month, we all joined together to observe the two minutes silence to remember the fallen and make time to reflect.
The solemn occasion was then followed by a creative, handcrafting session, by making our own, individually designed poppies to wear with pride to watch the parade and Remembrance Service taking place on the Sunday nearest to 11 November at 11am each year at the Cenotaph, to commemorate British and Commonwealth servicemen and women who died in the two World Wars and later conflicts.
Remember remember the 5th of November
Here at Corrina Lodge, we celebrated Guy Fawkes on a perfectly dry, autumnal evening when we wrapped ourselves up to foray outdoors to enjoy cups of hot chocolate, topped with marshmallows, gathered together around the fire pit and drawing pretty patterns and arcs in the air, with our sparklers!
Intergenerational Fun Day at Corrina Lodge
What an absolutely joyful morning when we were joined by some young visitors who came along to enjoy our monthly, intergenerational 'Corrina Tots' and 'Rhyme-time' session, in collaboration with Camberley Library.
The children bought with them their infectious energy and laughter which added to the warm and cheerful atmosphere which was a wonderful, uplifting start to the week for everyone!
A HUGE thank you to all who joined us and we look forward to hosting our 'Corrina Tots Christmas Party', on Monday 4th of December, from 10.30 - 12:00 - all are welcome to join us for festive fun, food & refreshments!
Retail Therapy for Residents at Corrina Lodge
As well as our regular mini bus trips to local attractions and places of interest, we also enjoy welcoming visitors into our Community to encourage independence for residents for the opportunity to shop for themselves and relatives, as well as to enjoy some retail therapy.
Recently, we were re-visited by Jean, a lovely lady who lives locally and brought a selection of her wares for us to browse and sample, including a selection of her delicious, homemade jams and chutneys which are always popular with our residents
