Activities at Rose 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!

Harvest Festival and Pumpkin Fun

We have been very busy here at Rose Lodge lately and would like to say a big thank you to everyone for your generous donations towards our Harvest Festival collection for Wisbech Foodbank. 

It was amazing to welcome Rev Rob, Carol, Gabrielle and Keith from St Peter & St Paul’s Church - and thank you once again for the lovely service too! Our residents thoroughly enjoyed it 

We have also been carving Pumpkins celebrating Ken’s Birthday and we also welcomed our little friends from Emneth Nursery for an intergenerational Art session. Marie said, “What a tremendous afternoon we’ve had together - some of the little ones are very talented and we certainly had lots of fun together!”

Worzals Minibus trip

Our residents here at Rose Lodge Care Home thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Worzals Garden Centre on our home Minibus. Needless to say the Tea and Cake certainly went down a treat too!

Rita said, “I used to visit Worzals with my friends and it was so lovely to come back and have a slice of delicious Cake again!”

 

Macmillan Coffee Morning

What a delightful fundraising morning we had at our annual Macmillan Coffee Morning complete and delicious cakes of course and lashings of Tea!

Home Superstars - Ruby and Pat

Meet Ruby and Pat - our 2 home resident superstars here at Rose Lodge Care Home.

Ruby loves to assist staff here at the home and is always busy helping to put clothes away, organising drinks and always wants to lend a helping hand. And so we wanted to celebrate and thank Ruby for all that she does by presenting her with her very own tabard and name badge. 

Meanwhile, Pat loves to help our Activities Team with the everyday running of the home and loves to meet and greet our visitors and those coming for an interview too! And so, Pat is now officially our ‘Activities Assistant’ and celebrated with her very own name badge too! 

Well done ladies and thank so much for everything that you do from General Manager Meg and all of the team here at the home.
