Oak Lodge As a member of NAPA (a leading activity and engagement charity), our activities team continuously prioritise wellbeing, delivering meaningful activities, experiences and events adapted to the daily wishes of residents, from birthday and anniversary tea parties and pampering days to intergenerational activities with local schools, visiting entertainers and Pets as Therapy.
Activities are tailored towards the individual, supported by life story work, in line with Oak Lodge’s ethos of a person-centred approach to care. Community outreach is important to Oak Lodge, as well as supporting residents with their individual hobbies. For our residents who are less able, we provide 1:1 therapeutic activities.
There is a strong sense of community at Oak Lodge, but residents are free to be more private whenever they choose. Family and friends are welcome at any time.
Oak Lodge has partnered with Famileo to create personalised newsletters for our residents filled with photos and messages from their loved ones. Every family member/friend can share updates and photos from their day-to-day life with just a few clicks on the Famileo app. Residents will then receive a printed copy to enjoy.

Our staff celebrated the Nepalese cultural day at Oak Lodge, immersing the residents and wider team of staff into a special cultural experience encompassing many Nepalese traditions.
Our very own Acorn’s Gardening Club finished their homemade scarecrow and it got the seal of approval from Alec!
Resident’s are encouraged to choose how and where they spend their time. For Janet, this means painting!
This years Forest Care Flower Arranging Competition had a bit of twist, all the flowers used had to be handmade… we are very proud of our residents’ creation and how it was imaginatively displayed.
We joined the nation in celebrating the 75th Anniversary of VE day with bunting, flags, fizz and food. Although it wasn’t the garden party with friends and family that we were planning, it was a fun day of commemoration across the home.
Our Arts and Crafts club has been keeping busy making artwork to display in our gallery walkway and also drawing pictures to send to our community.
David Pawson and his son Richard brought their newly restored Daimler to Oak Lodge for residents to enjoy. Richard kindly took residents and staff for a drive around the Oak Lodge grounds. We’d like to thank both Richard and David for sharing the experience with everyone. It was an honour to view a car with an incredible British history.
