Life at Badgeworth Court Care Home
Cheltenham Festival
Our residents have really enjoyed watching the first two days of the Cheltenham Festival in our main lounge.
The activities team provided a wonderful range of snacks and drinks for the afternoon, knowing everyone's favourites for them to choose from.
Residents shared their memories of the Cheltenham festival and horses, supported by some books from Cheltenham Library.
Music Therapy
Badgeworth Court were delighted to welcome Sing with Rosie music therapy. It was a lovely afternoon spent with a small group of ladies singing along and sharing musical memories together. Music therapy offers so many benefits and for those living with dementia; music reduces anxiety and encourages relaxation.
Busy Week at Badgeworth Court!
Residents celebrated several occasions and enjoyed a variety of activities at Badgeworth Court this week. Pancake Day was celebrated in style with pancake flipping and a little competition with residents and team members! We were also delighted to welcome Mind Song whose performances are always so enjoyable. On Memory Lane residents spent time using the interactive Magic Table and we ended the week with our gardening club.
Special Presentation from RNLI at Badgeworth Court
This week Badgeworth Court Care Centre organised a special visit from RNLI (Royal National Lifeboat Institution). Our resident David has supported and volunteered for them over many years. David’s friends and our activities team supported by the RNLI, arranged the event to support this great cause and thank David for his dedication. A presentation was made to David in recognition of his support and volunteering for almost 30 years.
Badgeworth’s chef and his team provided drinks and a special cake for the occasion, along with the Activities team arranging a raffle to help fundraise and support this great cause.
