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.

Music in Mind
Regular visitors to Sherwood Lodge – Ian and Al (better known as 'Music in Mind') – can be seen entertaining Bill, Veronica, Sandra and Maddie. Music in Mind are a very energetic duo and residents really enjoy their cheeky humour and singalongs. An encore is demanded every time they visit.
