Activities at White Lodge Care Home
Our Activities Coordinators here at White Lodge enjoy the fulfillment of helping residents feel important and a part of something. Meaningful moments are created through laughter and comfort. A varied activities programme is offered for the betterment of residents' bodies and minds, including music for health, 'Oomph' sessions and chair Zumba, in addition to coffee and cake groups that all inevitably lead to giggles and old fashioned singalongs. Also, we organise parties, trips out, walks in the country, bus outings and wonderful entertainers to visit our home. A sneaky tipple is always welcomed with cheese and crackers and, at the end of the day, it is important to go home knowing our activities have made a difference.

Peartree Pealers
We spent a lovely afternoon with the peartree pealers handbell team from Purton. The team was surprised to see how well the residents were singing with the tunes! A huge thank you to coming along to see us. We loved seeing everyone involved.
Sailing into the sunset!
Residents and the family members of White Lodge went out for a boat trip today. We spent a great time with Wilts & Berks Canal Trust WBCT Dragonfly Boat Trips with a trip on the boat followed by tea and freshly baked donuts!
Hook A Duck
With all the local village fete's taking place in the coming weeks, we felt it only right that we bring some of the tradition into White Lodge. We made the most of the warm sunshine by enjoying a game of 'Hook a Duck' with prizes up for grabs and a bit of " friendly " competition amongst staff and residents!
The final push for Tour De Barchester

On the final day of the tour, Simon McCall, Commercial Director, and Shona Conway, Project Co-ordinator, made their second stop of the day at White Lodge Care Home, where we welcomed all the riders with our local primary school and the community police officers.
