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!
Jane Ritchie
Hello, my name is Jane and I am the Activities Coordinator here at Rose Lodge and I have been here since 2010 .
My role is to engage and stimulate our residents by offering a range of activities for them to enjoy. I want to get everyone involved and make our home community and atmosphere as positive and welcoming as possible.
Making sure that our residents have things to do that they really enjoy doing is something that I am passionate about, It is so important to make sure that they are happy and enjoy all of the activities and events that we do with them. We enjoy creating new and special memories together.

Life at Rose Lodge Care Home
Remembrance Day
Our residents at Rose Lodge had a busy week preparing Poppies for their wreath to lay at the Memorial in time for Remembrance Day to honour to those brave men and women who gave their lives for us. Lest We Forget.
National Sherry Week
Who doesn't like a spot of Sherry?!? Needless to say we do at Rose Lodge as we celebrate National Sherry Week together. Cheers Ladies!
Poppy Mats and Aqua Painting Session
Our residents had a fun filled morning here at Rose Lodge at Arts & Crafts Club with Debbie - making Poppy Place Mats and a spot of Aqua Painting too!
Knit and Natter
Our residents just love knitting here at Rose Lodge - the only trouble is finding the next project to Knit! Maybe we will have to ask Tom Daley for some ideas!
Sweet Treat Baking
Our residents here at Rose Lodge Care Home always enjoy Baking Club and certainly devouring their home-made delights afterwards too!
The Chocolate Rice Crispy Cakes were by far the favourite this week!
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!”
