Activities at Shelburne 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!

Life at Shelburne Lodge Care Home

Artist Rose Timney paints for us.

Residents gathered together this week to watch the incredible Rose Timney paint wildlife for us. She specialises in drawing animals, so demonstrated this through her breathtaking bird pieces. She painted one for us, and gave us hints and tips on the techniques she uses. Rose brought some stunning examples of her work for us to see. Kathy and Joan said they found it incredibly relaxing to watch and look forward to creating their own art works soon.
