What a wonderful way to celebrate Easter Sunday at Eversley Lodge 🐣🌸

This morning we hosted a lovely Easter open morning, complete with homemade hot cross buns, delicious hot chocolate, and plenty of smiles all around. 🐰🍫

Our Easter egg hunt was a big hit, and it was fantastic to see both residents and little ones getting involved in the bonnet competition—such creativity on display! 👒🪺

Well done to all of our winners 👏

A huge thank you to our amazing staff for making the morning so special for our residents, and to everyone who came along to celebrate with us.

Residents were hand delivered Easter Eggs by our very own Easter bunny, Jess😂🐰🍫

It has meant so much to share our very first Easter together 💛

Wishing all of our residents, their families, the staff and our local community, a very Happy Easter 🐰🌼✝️

We’ve had an egg-cellent day here at Eversley Lodge 🐣🐇

This morning, residents enjoyed a game of Easter lawn bowls, using a white ball as their target and plastic eggs to see who could get closest – a fun seasonal twist that brought plenty of smiles!

This afternoon, Peter kept the Easter spirit going with a quiz followed by a very creative game of Easter egg carton bingo 🥚 Numbers were matched to eggs drawn from a hat, with prizes for one line and a full house… and Peter swept the board winning both! 👏

Head Chef Kane has excelled himself with his Hot Cross Buns ready for Sunday😍😋

To round off the day, residents were given Easter word searches to enjoy in their rooms for a bit of relaxing, mindful fun.

A cracking day all round! 💛🐣

🐣🎶🐰What a fantastic day of Easter celebrations at Eversley Lodge!🫶🏻🐾✨

This morning we were delighted to welcome Ted the Pet Therapy dog for another special visit 🐶 Animal therapy brings so many wonderful benefits to our residents, from reducing anxiety and lifting mood, to encouraging communication, gentle movement and meaningful interaction. Ted certainly brought lots of smiles, cuddles and calm moments to start our day.

The celebrations continued this afternoon with the second instalment of our Easter festivities… and what a turnout it was! 🌸🐰 We hosted our Easter open afternoon with delicious buffet food, fantastic entertainment from Splash Duo and some beautiful face painting by Fantasy Faces by Gem 🎤🎨🍰

It was so lovely all coming together and enjoying such a joyful afternoon. The atmosphere was full of laughter, music and community spirit 💕👥

We’re not done yet! Join us this Easter Sunday 10-12pm for the final instalment of our celebrations 🐰

Goooood evening everyone 🌙

We’ve had another lovely day here at Eversley Lodge!

This morning we welcomed back our wonderful friends from our weekly Friend in Deed session, along with some new faces too 👋 It was so nice to see everyone enjoying time together. The little ones had great fun taking part in the Easter egg hunt we had set up for them, followed by plenty of playtime and special bonding moments with our residents 🐣💛

This afternoon, Rosemary, Margaret and June got into the Easter spirit by decorating cupcakes ready for our open afternoon tomorrow 🧁🌷 Rosemary couldn’t resist a little taste test and declared them delicious — which gave us all a good chuckle!

We’re all looking forward to welcoming everyone tomorrow for the second instalment of our Easter celebrations! 🌼

🌴 BIG TRANSFORMATION AT EVERSLEY LODGE 🌴

We’re so excited to share that overnight, our garden has been completely transformed into a tropical beach retreat! 😎☀️

Residents can now enjoy relaxing strolls on the “sand”, fresh sea air… and even a spot of sunbathing (weather permitting! 🤭)

We’re just waiting on the cocktails arriving… although it might be more squash than sangria! 🍹

Happy April Fools from all of us at Eversley Lodge! 💛

Happy (and very busy!) day at Eversley Lodge! 😊✨

• 💪 We kicked off the morning with armchair exercises – including marching on the spot and gentle arm & leg stretches

• 🎯 Followed by some fun and friendly games throwing bean bags into hoops and hoops over cones

• 🎲 We finished with our ever-popular dice exercise game – each number bringing a different movement like clapping, ankle rolls and stretches

• 🌸 Rosemary and Josie enjoyed a lovely afternoon arranging flowers for the home, with a good singalong too 🎶

• 🍽️John and Gerry enjoyed a gentleman’s lunch together in the first floor lounge and Rosemary took a moment to read an Easter card she received in the post💌

A day full of movement, laughter and lovely moments 💛

🌷 A lovely weekend filled with smiles and laughter!

Our residents enjoyed a variety of activities including one-to-one time getting to know our newest residents, a little online shopping, bingo, a cosy movie afternoon watching Mamma Mia 2, and getting creative with Easter-themed crafts. 🐣🎨

Today everyone also enjoyed a delicious Sunday lunch together. Gerry was joined by his wife and two daughters, while James was delighted to be joined by his family to continue his Sunday tradition. Bryan and Walter were also joined by their daughters, making it a very special afternoon for everyone.

WEAR A HAT DAY 2026 🎩👒🧢

Brain Tumour Research is a cause very close to the hearts of our Eversley family so today we took part in “Wear a Hat Day” and what an afternoon it was!🥰

So far we have managed to raise just under £400 from today’s raffle and bake sale!👏🏻👏🏻

We want to say a HUGE thank you to everyone that came along, friends, family, our wonderful residents, our wonderful staff for working extra hard, and everyone that donated and organised donations of raffles prizes, keepsakes and cakes!🙏🏼

Another huge thank you to Chris Wilson Music! You were fantastic and we cannot wait to have you back again soon!🎶🎤

We also have a JustGiving page that will run for another few days if you wish to donate 🫶🏻

✨ THANK YOU! ✨

Brain tumours are indiscriminate; they can affect anyone at any age.

Brain tumours kill more children and adults under the age of 40 than any other cancer.

Just 1% of the national spend on cancer research has been allocated to brain tumours since records began in 2002.

One in three people knows someone affected by a brain tumour.

Each year, nearly 13,000 people are diagnosed with a brain tumour.

Every day, 35 people are diagnosed with a brain tumour.
