Activities at Beaufort Grange Care Home
Activities are an integral part of life at our care home. We want to ensure that the people we support have as much fun as possible during their time with us, so it’s important that our activities programme is created with the interests of residents in mind. Our skilled Activities Coordinators bring a certain uniqueness to the home that can’t be found anywhere else, and which is reflected in the activities they organise.

I'm very outgoing with an infectious personality and have an incredible bond with many of our residents and their families.

Life at Beaufort Grange Care Home
Clapping for Key Workers
Staff at Beaufort Grange were joined by local police personnel to clap for key workers in the community. As a way of saying thank you to the staff at Beaufort Grange, Avon and Somerset Constabulary gifted chocolate eggs to all staff and residents at the care home. Beaufort Grange staff then joined the police to clap and cheer to express appreciation for the effort being made by key workers to keep people safe and well during the COVID-19 pandemic.
We here at Beaufort Grange are incredibly grateful for the outstanding services provided by key workers. We have been overwhelmed by the kindness shown by our local community. Many people have brought flowers and cards for staff and residents. We have also received homemade face masks, visors, and kit bags, which have been a great help to our staff.”
We are planning to host a garden party for our local community once lockdown has ended and it is safe to do so. We are looking forward to being able to see everyone and express our thanks for everyone’s efforts.
Nurses' Day
The 12th May 2020 marks 200 years since the birth of Florence Nightingale. Amid the current COVID-19 situation, we thought that this would be a perfect time to say a huge thank you to our nurses.
Beaufort Grange’s wonderful nursing staff were treated to lunch and drinks in the sunshine. Terry (a resident) gave a speech thanking the nurses for their hard work on behalf of all residents. Raji, the General Manager, also gave a speech expressing how proud she is of all of Beaufort’s nurses and the amazing service they provide to our residents.
After the speeches, the nurses also received video calls from family members of residents, thanking them for all that they do and sending warm wishes. The nurses all also received a boxed pen, engraved with their name, as a thank you gift.
A great afternoon was had by all!
Easter Memories
We wanted to brighten up the home for Easter – what better way than with colourful bunting? The residents wrote about some wonderful Easter memories and we turned them into bunting for everyone to enjoy. Here is Ivor’s funny memory.
Easter Treats
Residents at Beaufort Grange helped the Activities Team to make some tasty Easter treat baskets for everyone. The baskets were beautiful, the chocolate was the best bit, of course, and brought smiles to everyone’s faces. Happy Easter everyone!
Keeping Busy
Residents at Beaufort Grange have been busy this Easter! They have arranged lovely spring flowers to brighten up the living spaces and have enjoyed completing the puzzles, quizzes and colouring in their Easter activity packs. Who said isolation had to be boring?!
Looking Good
Residents at Beaufort Grange have been keeping up appearances with the help of the lovely Antoneta. Haircuts, styling, hand massages and manicures too! David was very pleased with his trim!
