Sometimes it’s important for the residents to have some one to one time where they can talk to somebody about how they are and feel safe and secure in conversation….
We take time to understand somebody’s past interests.

Today we have had a great day. The staff have been playing spin the wheel (with soundtrack 🎶) where we played forfeits and won more treats. Lots of fun and laughter all round.

We have loved getting to know each other more and appreciating each other. We hope the night staff have as much fun.

Marcella, our head chef, has had an eggcelant time playing 🥚😂

🌟 Celebrating Our Amazing Team at Charlton Lodge 🌟

This week, we’re celebrating all the incredible work our staff do here at Charlton Lodge. Our home simply wouldn’t be what it is today without the dedication, compassion, and teamwork of every single member of staff. 💙

This is a whole team approach, recognising everyone who makes a difference — including our day, night, and weekend staff. Each and every one of you is valued and appreciated.

We’ve got lots of fun activities planned throughout the week to bring a smile to everyone’s face — with treats to eat and drink, games to enjoy, and moments to relax together. 🎉

Today, we kicked things off with pizza and drinks, followed by a fun game where staff shared stories and events, and everyone had to guess whether they were true or a lie. There were plenty of surprising (and even famous!) moments shared, and lots of laughter along the way! 😄

Here’s to a week full of appreciation and well-deserved recognition — thank you for everything you do! 🙌✨

Some more pictures of the residents admiring the classic mini this week. It was such a good topic of conversation for the residents many previously owned or had driven one…. We like cars at Charlton Lodge, our cafe is The Morris Cafe and our cinema bar is named Williams after the local Formula One racing team.

This week we said a very special happy birthday to Michael who celebrated with us and all his daughters. Being the car lover that he is we arranged for a classic mini to come to the home for him to admire, was amazing how many of the residents previously owned one!
