Activities at Edingley Lodge Care Home

Today we treated our residents to a relaxing musical morning. This wonderful event was planned in aid of the Royal Ascot.

Cat Alexander the very talented Harpist made sure our residents had a very memorable morning.

You better beer-lieve that residents at Edingley Lodge care home were more than happy to raise a glass, and sample some top craft ales, bitters and lagers, in celebration of National Beer Day on June 15th.

The hospitality team at Edingley Lodge set up a bar for a real pub experience and brought in a range of brew-tiful British ales for residents to sample.  Residents and their visitors enjoyed a beer tasting in the garden, virtual tour of a local brewery, learning about the history of beer they sampled the different craft ales, bitters and lagers.

Across our services we had a lovely time joining Rhiannon Watkinson from the RAF Museum London for an interactive talk exploring the exciting and innovative aviation history of Hendon.

Our residents were able to learn about the first flights from the fields at Hendon, the creation of the London Aerodrome and Battle of Britain pilots who flew from RAF Hendon.

The talk also included photographic and film material from the Museum’s archive. Residents across our homes had a fantastic time and we truly enjoyed the virtual experience.

Residents are celebrating National Carers’ Week, which takes place from June 5-11. Residents wanted to thank all the wonderful staff at the home, whose hard work and dedication make a real difference to the lives of those living in their care.

Staff were treated to party; afternoon tea in the garden with live music. Head chef had put together a wonderful spread of party food for everyone to enjoy. Family and friends arrived throughout the afternoon to join in the fun with staff and residents. 

Residents also gave thanks by giving handmade cards and handwritten letters to carers with a small gift of thanks for all that they do.
