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.

Life at Marriott House and Lodge Care Home
Community Wordgames
On Wednesday 29th March, the community was invited to join the residents of Marriott House and Lodge for some word games. These included anagrams, hangman, Countdown and much more. This is one of the regular community afternoons that we hold.
Mother's Day
Mother’s Day was celebrated with small gift boxes that were given to all the ladies. There was also a special themed quiz and film afternoon.
Cedar Ministry came into the home to hand out flowers to all the ladies! The residents were so grateful and we would like to extend our thanks to them.
Bulb & Seed Planting
During March the residents of Marriott House were busy planting summer bulbs and seeds. These are now in the greenhouse and we will be watching them closely as they grow!
Bingo Madness
Marriott House and Lodge continues to hold monthly community bingo sessions. This month's session took place on Friday 24th March.
Everyone is welcome to join us for this event. There are prizes to be won and refreshments will be served during the afternoon!
Cook's Corner
Residents love baking, so a morning of cake making, followed by an afternoon of decorating, was a lot of fun for everyone involved. These cakes were enjoyed throughout the afternoon!
Games Morning
A lot of residents enjoy playing balloon tennis; this not only encourages gentle exercise, but also encourages socialisation and always results in lots of laughter!
