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.

National Chocolate Cake Day

Music for Health
Music for Health workshops are fun, stimulating and extremely varied - and provide something for everyone. The music is changed from workshop to workshop, keeping the attraction fresh. Residents are encouraged to participate from the start, but can progress at their own speed. Our most recent session took place on Wednesday 18th January.

In the lead up to Chinese New Year, residents made decorations that were used throughout the home. On 28th January, the kitchen made a Chinese-themed supper for everyone to enjoy.
