We all love a good read … nothing better than a relaxing time reading these fantastic books we have and then discussing them afterwards. As it’s shrove Tuesday and Ash Wednesday where we celebrate the famous Shrovetide ball game in Ashbourne, we read the book on Shrovetide first and then a couple of others.

Exercise class with a fitness instructor called Will. He’s amazing with the residents and great at engaging with them. He concentrates on arms, legs and core strength to help gain or maintain strength to be able to get themselves up from a chair. We love these sessions with Will.

Today was National Umbrella Day which is really fitting with all this rain we are having at the moment. So in our arts and crafts session we created pictures of umbrellas ☔️ and rainy day scenes. Lovely art work ladies.

We do love reading the books 📚 that we have here to read, they are based on everyday life, stories we are aware of that are local to us. It’s a fab activity to sit together and read these books with a cuppa and share conversations about what we’ve read . 📕📒📚📘

Fabulous Friday at Ashbourne Lodge!

What a fantastic day we’ve had! Our residents enjoyed a morning filled with fun mental and physical games, joined by our lovely pharmacy students, who brought so much joy and energy to the home 💛🤝

This afternoon was just as lively and creative:
🎉 A classic game of bingo
🛍️ Designing their very own bags for life
💆 And relaxing pampering sessions, thanks to our talented pharmacy students who really do have a multitude of skills!

It was a day full of laughter, connection, creativity, and meaningful engagement — just the way we it at Ashbourne Lodge 💜
