Words of Wisdom: Monthly Poetry Group Success at Langton Lodge

Staines-upon-Thames locals have been getting their creative juices flowing every month as a poetry group gathers at Langton Lodge.

On the last Tuesday of every month at 10am, a group of up to 12 attendees gather to share their favourite poems and discuss why they have chosen them. The group is made up of a mixture of Owners at Langton Lodge and visitors from the town and surrounding areas.

It has been found that poetry helps people express feelings, emotions and understanding of the world in which we live. Coming together at the Lodge also promotes a sense of community and togetherness, a key part of the lifestyle on offer at Churchill Living.

Mrs Cliffe, an apartment Owner at Langton Lodge and member of the poetry group, commented: “I love poetry and had been a member of the group for many years. When we started meeting in the Owners’ Lounge at Langton Lodge, I enjoyed the atmosphere so much that I decided to look at the apartments for sale here. 18 months later I have moved in and am thoroughly enjoying life in my new home!”

Caroline Haswell, Senior Marketing Manager for Churchill Living’s South West Division, added: “It has been great to see our Owners at Langton Lodge opening up the Owners’ Lounge for their poetry club. A close-knit group has been formed consisting of both Owners and locals and it is a lovely example of the thriving community and social life we have on offer here.”
