Activities at Marnel 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.

Life at Marnel Lodge Care Home
Great Expectations
We all wished Bimala good luck, as she is leaving to have twins! This was her last day at work; residents and staff enjoyed pink and blue marshmallows topped with sprinkles in the sun. We all wish her well and we can't wait for all those cuddles!
The Captain's Table
Each month, we ask residents what food they'd like to try that isn't on our regular menu. They are then invited in a small group to enjoy some drinks and and a tasty meal, like on a cruise chip.
Putt Up or Shut Up
There's always time for golf at Marnel Lodge. Residents made the most of the sunshine recently!
