Life at Badgeworth Court Care Home
VE Day Celebrations
Badgeworth Court residents really enjoyed a performance by Melissa Hollick to celebrate 77 years since VE Day. Melissa sang a range of songs from the era with everyone singing along and dancing to the well-known tunes. It was a very enjoyable afternoon.
Joana, the Activities Coordinator also arranged for vintage and war time items from The Wilson, Cheltenham’s art gallery and museum for residents to look at. Thank you so much for the loan of these items. Residents shared their own memories, Anne one of our residents said: "I remember being in the street with my parents with flags to celebrate the Victory in Europe".

Visit to Barchester Tewkesbury Fields
Badgeworth residents had a lovely afternoon at Barchester Tewkesbury Fields Care Home who kindly invited us for afternoon tea. Tewkesbury Fields has recently re-opened after being refurbished. It was wonderful to meet residents and staff from other Barchester Healthcare care homes. We all enjoyed delicious cakes and sandwiches made by the home's chef. Everyone agreed, how gorgeous the home looks. Thank you all for the invite, and hospitality we look forward to visiting again!
VE Day Crafts
Badgeworth Court residents enjoyed a craft session ready for VE Day. Everyone enjoys creating and it was lovely to do this ready for our up and coming celebrations.
Cheltenham Animal Shelter Visit
Residents at Badgeworth Court Care Centre had a visit from Cheltenham Animal Shelter. Bill and Ben, two lovely guinea pigs brought lots of smiles and were such characters. Families and team members kindly made donations and we were delighted to donate a basket with food and toys to the Cheltenham Animal Shelter.
Thank so much for visiting us and to all who donated.
