Farm-tastic! Godalming care home wins national accolade

Highlighted home news

A care home in Godalming is celebrating after winning a national award. 

The Care UK team at Broadwater Lodge, on Summers Road, beat off stiff competition from care homes across the nation to win the Best Outdoor Environment category at the Caring UK Awards 2021. 

 

The awards celebrate excellence across the care sector, and highlight the outstanding contributions made by care home teams. The Best Outdoor Environment category is aimed at care homes with outstanding services that engage residents in the outdoors and are designed to improve their physical and mental wellbeing.  

With a summer house, wide paths and even its own farm, named ‘Codger’s Farm’, that houses pigs, goats, sheep, a turkey,  a small flock of chickens and a mixture of beautiful birds, Broadwater Lodge was commended for its imaginative variety of areas. 

The judges praised how the home team utilises its outdoor space to create meaningful activities that often include the residents feeding and grooming the animals and inviting family and friends of residents to explore the farm and create new memories.

Angela Bookham, Home Manager at Broadwater Lodge, said: “We are delighted to have won the ‘Best Outdoor Environment’ category in the Caring UK Awards. 

“This award is testament not only to the team’s hard work and innovative thinking to ensure every resident leads a happy and fulfilling life, but to those in the community who have helped us to create and maintain a welcoming outdoor space for all. Regardless of the season, residents always enjoy exploring our great outdoors!

“The last year has certainly had its challenges, but the team have gone above and beyond to maintain as much normality as possible for residents, and the outdoor space has played an integral role in this, by continuing to lift up spirits and improve both residents and team members wellbeing. 

“I’m very proud of the environment we’ve created here at Broadwater Lodge and look forward to building on our success by partnering with local organisations so other groups in the community can enjoy our award-winning outdoor space.” 

Broadwater Lodge has been designed to deliver the very best standards of care and to enable residents to live active and fulfilled lives. The home provides full-time residential care, dementia care and respite care.
