Our activities team prioritise resident wellbeing by organising a variety of meaningful and joyful group, individual and one-to-one activities and experiences for our residents living with dementia. This includes activities tailored for residents who are less mobile and able. Activities are multi-sensory, designed to alleviate dementia symptoms and help to improve concentration and communication, and encourage reminiscence and social interaction.
Our activities at our Surrey care home are planned around each person living with dementia in accordance with their care needs, their daily wishes and cultural interests and supported by their life-stories in line with Holly Lodge’s ethos of a person-centred approach to care. We involve families in care and activity planning to gain a personal understanding of what really matters to each resident and learn about their favourite pastimes and hobbies so we can tailor activities to suit their preferences.
Listen to what Margaret has to say about her experience with Holly Lodge: “One thing that has always been here is the kindness of all the carers, the kindness of all the staff, it’s like it’s an honour for them to look after that person…I feel like I’m coming from my home to my home.”
To provide the care our residents deserve, we set our staffing levels above industry-standard ratios, to enable a more-relaxed environment for our residents where person-centred care can be delivered without having to be rushed. We have Nurses on-site 24-hours a day.
Our talented Catering Team prides themselves on offering freshly prepared meals every day using locally sourced ingredients wherever possible. We continually look at new and exciting ways to encourage nutrition and hydration. Specific allergy and dietary requests are always catered for.

Choosing a care home can be a difficult and emotional process and we understand the impact of a dementia diagnosis on residents and their families. We aim to make it a little easier by providing exceptional care in a happy and homely environment using contemporary design to create both calming and stimulating environments for people living with dementia.
Specialist dementia care can help to meet the needs of people living with dementia as their condition progresses and ease the distress for those who have been caring for them. We involve families in care planning to ensure each resident has an individual care plan that meets all their medical, physical, emotional and social needs, and we work closely with families to ensure that the move for their loved one is a smooth and positive one. Our open visiting policy means family and friends are welcome at any time.
