Activities at Stamford Bridge Beaumont Care Home

The activity team within our home spend a lot of time committing themselves to organising a range of activities for residents. This includes, pet therapy, trips out to local places of interest, visits from entertainers and musicians, bingo, one to one pamper time, weekly quizzes, coffee mornings, arts and crafts and baking. Activities are considered to be a crucial aspect of our home as residents look forward to upcoming events. As a result, it is essential that our team work together with dedication, to ensure residents are entertained and involved in as many activities as possible.

Life at Stamford Bridge Beaumont Care Home

Medical Detection Dogs

Across our services residents had a fantastic time during a special live virtual event, led by Emilia from Medical Detection Dogs.

Emilia took us on a journey to discover how the organisation began training dogs to support people with complex health conditions, saving their lives on a daily basis.

Using their amazing sense of smell, these dogs can identify odour changes emitted prior an episode and alert the person to take preventative action.

We were introduced to the wonderful dogs and the science behind the sniff.  It was a delightful experience for everyone, especially our canine-loving residents.

Musical Moments

Music is a wonderful way to bring our residents together and get them moving and singing along. 

We welcomed back the very talented Jess from Musical Moments for the first session of 2024 who once again provided our residents with an afternoon full of musical fun, light exercise and lots of laughter. Our residents really look forward to Jess' visits to our home and attendees always leave happy and with a smile on there face (and most of the time a song stuck in their head!) 

Birthday Celebrations!

We love a good birthday party at Stamford Bridge Beaumont. We celebrated the birthday of our wonderful resident Marilyn, with a tea party and a fantastic cake made by our very talented chef!

All residents enjoyed coming together to chat, listen to music and of course, enjoy a slice of cake washed down with a hot drink.

A very special day, for a very special lady. Happy birthday Marilyn

Barchester's Big Quiz

All over the country our care homes and hospitals linked up for Barchester’s Big Quiz of the year!

 

Residents tested their knowledge with a variety of questions, from historical humdingers and musical musings to pictorial puzzlers and connective conundrums.

 

Everyone who participated had a fantastic time and enjoyed some friendly competition.

Meeting the Reindeers

Across our homes we got into the Christmas spirit of things by joining a festive live virtual experience, led by Des and Kelly from Performing Pets.

Our residents were thrilled to meet the charming furry friends and get up close and personal with the reindeers.  We certainly learnt some interesting facts about the animals and had a fantastic time.

Langlands Garden Centre Trip

Residents and staff got into the festive spirit having a wander around Langlands garden centre which has been beautifully decorated for the festive season. They also enjoyed a coffee and a cake in the Café afterwards.

Mr and Mrs Green, who have been residents at the home for over a year, enjoyed the trip. Mr Green commented, “It was lovely to visit Langlands as me and my wife used to go with our son. The effort put in by Langlands to create the displays was great – my wife and I also enjoyed looking through the gardening things as we used to be keen gardeners”
