Activities at Edingley Lodge Care Home

We have had a delightful morning welcoming Ibby Maloney into the home. Ibby played an array of songs on her piano

The music brought back lots of happy memories for the residents, especially the songs from The Sound of Music.
The atmosphere across the whole home was astounding and we had many compliments about the performance.

International Nurses Day is an international day observed around the world each year, to mark the contribution that nurses make to society.

12 May was chosen to celebrate the day as it is the anniversary of the birth of Florence Nightingale, the founder of modern nursing.

Today we had our monthly coffee morning thank you for everyone that came and visited us. 

The Guest who visited the home enjoyed the homemade cakes and sweets treats prepared by the head chef Marta Fitzerman, and had a chance to take a tour of the home. Special thank you to Katherine from Bramley Newspaper

Excitement is in the air at Edingley Lodge Care Home in Edingley, Newark where residents and staff have been busy making Coronation-themed decorations and baking up a storm of red, white and blue cakes and pastries with the help of head chef in preparation for the King’s Coronation on May 6.

Staff and residents at the home put their heads together and came up with a plan for their celebrations fit for a King.  Over the bank holiday weekend the home held concert with a live entertainment and Coronation-themed quiz.  The whole home came together to celebrate our new King and talk about the new era the country is entering.

Today we had a special birthday party at Edingley Lodge. Our resident, John Connor, has had a lovely day celebrating his birthday with his family and friends.
Happy Birthday John from all of us here at Edingley Lodge.

Across our services Residents had a wonderful time participating in an interactive virtual talk with Pippa Catterall, Professor of History and Policy at the University of Westminster, where we delved into the rich history of coronations.

During the talk, we explored fascinating topics such as the coronation chair, the crown, and other significant aspects related to King Charles' upcoming coronation. Our residents were thrilled to have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the memoirs of past coronations from 1937 and 1953, as well as learning about the coronation oath and what to expect from the ceremony, including the music, guests, and pageantry.
