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 Service
On the 8th October, we held our Harvest Festival Service. Our local church sadly couldn't come in due to current circumstances, but they were lovely enough to send us a script and a number of hymns.
We also had our relative advocate play his violin to accompany the hymns over Skype.
Food items were collected in the home and this will go to the food bank in Wisbech.
All the residents had a lovely time, singing the hymns and chatting about Harvest Festivals from the residents' past. We also got to try the bread wreath we had made earlier in the week.
