Life at Badgeworth Court Care Home

BBQ & Ukulele Group

What a busy and fun day at Badgeworth Court, enjoying some late summer sunshine!

The Cheltenham Ukulele Group gave us a concert in the garden, entertaining residents with some upbeat singalong tunes.

This was followed by some colourful and delicious  fruity cocktails provided by the Portuguese community of Cheltenham.

Residents and team members then enjoyed a wonderful BBQ prepared for us by our magnificent chef.

Fitness in the Garden

At Badgeworth, residents and team members can enjoy weekly G-Fitness.

This exercise session encourages all our residents to keep themselves active and it has been a success every week.

The classes promote movement and flexibility, and is a chance to socialise and engage with others.

We’ve had a great session in our garden.

National Cowboy

Residents enjoyed a fantastic show from Cat's Pyjamas Productions. with a lovely performance called 'Love That Country Music', and this included a selection of country music, such as Dolly Parton, Kenny Rogers and Patsy Cline.

In addition to the celebration, we enjoyed refreshments and lollies, provided by our chef.

Residents and staff had great fun with the cowboy hats and decorations.

Sunny Days

Residents of Badgeworth Court have welcomed the spring sunshine.

Some quality time has been spent in the garden by our residents and team members. This includes walks around the Badgeworth Court grounds, games in the sun, fresh drinks and watering our flowers.

The Value of Compassion

A big thank you to the children in year 4 at Shurdington CE Primary School for their lovely letters to residents.

Residents are now writing back to their new pen friends, answering questions and telling life stories, as well as including positive messages.

Easter Celebrations

Our residents enjoyed the Easter celebrations with a virtual church service, following our Easter raffle.

Our chef provided a special menu to our residents and, in our main lounge, they could each find a little surprise.

There has been lots of laughs and fun enjoyed by all.
