Didcot retirement home to host free picnic event in summer

The ‘Picnic on the Patio’ event will take place at Gladwell Lodge in Didcot on Friday, July 24, from 2pm to 4pm and will include garden games as well as refreshments.

Guests will also have the chance to meet current residents and hear about life at the retirement development.

Caroline Haswell, senior divisional marketing manager at Churchill, said: “Our Summer ‘Picnic on the Patio’ Party is the perfect opportunity for local over 60s and their families to come and experience the fun and sociable lifestyle that comes with downsizing to a new Churchill apartment.

“We can’t wait to welcome everyone to join the party and see for themselves the wonderful friendly community atmosphere we have here.”

Gladwell Lodge offers one and two-bedroom retirement apartments, each designed with the needs of the over-60s in mind.

The development includes a communal lounge, guest suite, lodge manager and a 24-hour emergency Careline service.

The Churchill Living Group has received a five-star rating in the HBF Customer Satisfaction Survey for 11 years in a row.
