Life at Badgeworth Court Care Home
Easter Egg Hunt
What an egg-cellent afternoon we have had even the sun shone for us.
Residents and Team members took part in the Easter egg hunt in our gardens. We were so lucky to have such lovely weather, we even had time to enjoy a cup of tea and refreshments provided to our Chef. We also had some special visitors, children from the Portuguese Community in Cheltenham. Thank you so much to Ana Rita Frade, Íris and Fernanda for spending the day with us.
Happy Easter
Badgeworth Court residents were very pleased to receive Easter donations from Cheltenham and Bishop’s Cleve Anna Chaplaincy for older people. A lovely individual surprise with Easter gifts and a card. We also received an Easter card from Gloucestershire Hope. Our very own Easter bunny delivered the eggs on Easter Sunday, which was followed by a traditional Easter roast lunch.
Mind Song Performs
Our residents enjoyed our regular visit from Mind Song, who provided a fantastic afternoon of entertainment with musical memories, followed by tea and cake!
Many residents also spent time in the garden, which was a great way to start the weekend!

He also happily takes requests taking residents' back in time with different music genre, such as jazz.
