Activities at Marriott House and 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.

Easter Poetry
In the leader up to Easter, residents enjoyed writing some Easter-themed poetry.
Easter
Easter is here; it’s coming our way,
we’re getting everything ready for Easter Sunday.
Hanging decorations, hiding all the sweets,
Making Easter bonnets and roasting up meats.
Whilst tending to the garden, avoiding the April showers,
I pick myself some daffodils and other lovely flowers.
And after all the hard work is done,
I reward myself with a hot cross Bun!
Easter Bunny
Here I am - the Easter Bunny,
With floppy ears and fur the colour of honey,
Getting the eggs ready for the children to find,
Then scouting out a tuft of grass for me to hide behind!
Easter Cake Competition
Marriott House and Lodge are always keen to be part of a competition. Residents designed and made their own cakes with the help of the activities team. Once they were finished, they were sliced up and enjoyed with afternoon tea over the Easter weekend.
