Activities at Lynde House Care Home

It's Never to late to be fit!

Residents had a lovely time in the garden, keeping fit. Plenty of fresh air and beautiful surroundings are the best way to enjoy an exercise class. Residents are already looking forward to our next session. Who knew exercise could be so much fun!

A fun busy day at Lynde House at the summer BBQ garden party, which included food and drinks in abundance and Jazz live entertainment. It was a lovely day where all residents, families and staff enjoyed in the sun!

Did you know at Lynde House we have a mini bus that we use to go on exciting trips all year round?

This week residents took a trip to see the fabulous London Christmas lights 2023! We visited Knightsbridge, Oxford street, Regents street and London South bank to really soak up the Christmas spirit of London!

Sunday Funday here at Lynde as residents enjoyed a game of Boccia with Kemi.

We haven't played Boccia before but the residents were naturals so will most definitely be playing again!

Here at Lynde House we try to give the residents opportunities to try new things whether it be games, arts & crafts, experiences or anything else.

Mary was ordained 30 years ago and practiced as a vicar for many years in the Church of England. Today our Deputy Manager Smita took Mary to All Souls Church in St Margaret’s where she had holy communion, a tour of the church, sang hymns and had a demonstration of a baptism by the church minister.

A lovely morning where Mary had the opportunity to reminisce about her long service in the church.

One of our lovely residents Gwyn was a farmer in Wales for many years and looked after hundreds of sheep. Today we went to a local farm where Gwyn could pet and feed the farm animals while reminiscing about her fond memories on the farm.
