Activities at Kingfisher Lodge Care Home
Activities are the cornerstone of a wholesome home experience and our Activities Coordinators are always putting their creative minds to the test by organising new and exciting social events for residents to partake in. Of course, we take into account the likes and dislikes of those we support, so if someone doesn’t feel like trying something new, there will always be something on offer to reflect their personal interests. For the people who may just prefer some peace and quiet instead, we also offer one-to-one time that can be enjoyed with a nice cup of coffee or just a simple chat – whatever they desire.
George Tantrum
Hi, I am George and I am the Activities Lead here at Kingfisher Lodge. I have worked in healthcare for over 6 years and I have a passion for enriching the lives of the people in our home. We offer a wide variety of life enrichment activities within our home, from minibus trips and group outings all the way to spending some one on one time with our residents. If you pop into the home, the chances is you’ll find me, so come say hello!

Life at Kingfisher Lodge Care Home
We went on Baths amazing sightseeing bus!
What a wonderful experience for the residents seeing the great city of Bath and reminiscing their time around the beautiful city.
We came back to the home and talked to everyone about our day out which sparked a long chat about which Cities we all came from.
Visiting Chew Valley Lake
We enjoyed a lovely trip to Chew Valley Lake! We spent some time having a sing song in our minibus on the way to the lakes, and even played quiz on our journey! We got our winter coats on and enjoyed a lovely walk around the lakes, taking in the fresh air and sunny views! We stopped at a local fish bar and enjoyed an amazing fish and chip lunch. What a wonderful way to spend a sunny winters day!
A Special Visitor
We had a very special visit from someone last night…. Santa Claus himself!
Santa travelled all the way from the North Pole just to visit our residents and staff to see who was on his naughty and nice list!
We loved taking pictures with Santa and checking out his sleigh! It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas!️
A Big 100th Birthday!
We had so much fun today because one of our residents celebrated their 100th birthday today!
We hosted a rose themed afternoon tea, and indulged in plenty of cake & wine! And the King even delivered her special birthday card from the royal family!
A birthday fit for the Queen of Kingfisher Lodge!
A trip to Clark's Village
We had a truly memorable day out at Clark's Village with some of our cherished residents!
The joy of exploring the variety of shops, hunting for the perfect Christmas gifts for their loved ones, and enjoying a delightful meal in one of the restaurants made the day special.
These are the moments that remind us of the beauty of community and shared experiences.
Here's to many more adventures together!
Ice Bucket Challenge!
It’s Alzheimer’s Awareness Month and one of the ways we have raised awareness this month is by completing the Ice Bucket Challenge!
Our Lead Dementia Champion and Senior Care Assistant Kelly braved the bucket in our scenic gardens, right here at Kingfisher Lodge!
A massive WELL DONE for being such a sport and raising awareness for a cause that is so close to the hearts of the staff, residents and friends of Kingfisher Lodge!
