Activities at Ritson Lodge Care Home
Our home is always full of life, and we can thank our wonderful Activities Coordinators for this. Dedication to creating a unique and interesting activities programme is what sets us apart from other homes. We always take into consideration that some people would prefer to pursue their own interests, which is why our team strive to incorporative activities that cater to a wide range of tastes and hobbies. Our trips out are always fun and exciting as well, and residents are guaranteed to return with stories to tell their loved ones!

SAY CHEESE! CELEBRATING CHEESE & WINE DAY
Staff and residents at Barchester’s Ritson care home in Hopton had a fantastic time celebrating National Cheese & Wine Day on July 25th, surely one of the best days of the year!
Summer Fete 2022
Staff, residents, relatives and the local community came together at Ritson Lodge to enjoy a Summer Fete that was held in the home’s grounds. Ritson Lodge hosted a variety of activities throughout the day, including a BBQ, cream teas, tombola stall, live entertainment, games, and craft stalls. which were enjoyed by everyone who came to the event.
Jubilee Celebrations
We enjoyed a whole range of different activities during the Jubilee Bank Holiday weekend including a Royal Afternoon Tea Party, Jubilee-inspired games, watching the parade in our new cinema and supporting the local community events.
Ritson Lodge was pleased to support the Hopton Village Community Jubilee Event by providing free Cream Teas for anyone who wanted them.
The weather was not on our side but that didn't stop Manager Siobhan and her Activities Team from ensuring the residents of Hopton were able to enjoy their delicious scones!
At Ritson we are very proud members of the Hopton community and we are always looking for ways to support community events and campaigns and to get our residents involved in the village.
Jubilee Preparations
We have been getting ready for our Jubilee celebrations by decorating the home, planning the events and baking some delicious Jubilee-inspired treats.
We have a lot planned for the big Bank Holiday weekend and we can't wait to get started.
Grand Opening
We had a fantastic time yesterday evening showing off our amazing home with the grand opening of our new cinema and new pub - The Ritz Inn!
It was a full house, the sun was shining, the home looked amazing and everyone was impressed with the hard work that our brilliant Head of Maintenance Paul Harte has done to create such a wonderful environment for our residents and staff.
The new pub is already in high demand for residents wanting to watching sporting events, enjoy a quiet pint and catch up with family over a glass of wine.
The new cinema is being used to showcase new films, music concerts and virtual tours.
We have an incredible home and we love showing it off to everyone who is interested, so if you would like a tour then please give us a call on 01502 734000 or email Ritson.Lodge@Barchester.com
