Activities at Sherwood Lodge Care Home
Our Activities Coordinator is constantly striving to mentally and physically stimulate those we support by organising group and individual activities for anyone and everyone to participate in. We have regular outings in the mini bus to nearby places of interest including local garden centres and parks as well as musicians and entertainers. We also hold bingo evenings which are helped out by our residents families. We also have a local pub nearby which the residents enjoy visiting from time to time for a spot of lunch or sitting in the gardens in the summer time. We try our best to arrange activities that reflect their interests as best is possible. We also encourage relatives to join with activities and events as often as they can.

Life at Sherwood Lodge Care Home
World Chocolate Day
Residents at Sherwood Lodge in Fulwood celebrated World Chocolate Day with a range of chocolaty activities on Sunday 7th July. Staff helped residents make chocolate cakes, chocolate truffles and held a competition. The winner was prized with an exquisite box of the finest chocolates donated by Beeches chocolate. Residents enjoyed the Beeches history presentation and sampled their delicious chocolates.
Hot Summer Afternoon
On a particularly hot summer afternoon Harry and Lily, residents of Sherwood Lodge, really enjoyed a nice refreshing drink at the local pub.
Coffee Morning
Our local church hosted a coffee morning, two residents of Sherwood Lodge, Sheila and Edith attended and made new friends. Everyone had a good time and interesting conversations over coffee and delicious cakes. Residents are expecting a visit from their new friends soon.
