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. Our activities program ranges from arts & crafts, live music, gardening, trips out, walks and so much more.
As a team we are committed to Barchester's Life Enrichment programme ensuring we work with mind, body and soul.

Beaufort Grange’s Mini Beauforts baby and toddler group is so enjoyed by residents and all those who attend. We had the pleasure of spending time with Freddie who stole our hearts, he was such a delight and Freddie also got to meet Bart and Chester!
Shopping at Cribbs Causeway
Beaufort Grange residents had a great trip out to Cribbs Causeway for a bit of shopping followed by coffee and cake at Café Rouge we also had a giggle at some of the fashions! It was a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon.
Alive Allotments Experience
Beaufort Grange residents were invited to the Alive Activities allotment in Brentry and we had a such an enjoyable afternoon. Thank you so much to this wonderful charity whose volunteers spent time with the residents showing them around, making insect houses and chatting while relaxing in the sun. Alive allotments have been designed to give therapeutic and social benefits to those living with dementia. Gardening has such a positive impact on the physical and mental well-being of us all.
Volunteer of the Year
We are proud to announce that Jackie Cranmer has been crowned Volunteer of the Year for the Cental Division in this year’s Barchester Care Awards and is through to the national round of judging. More than 3,900 nominations were received from all Barchester homes and hospitals across the UK. All entries were a very high standard and Jackie is over the moon to have been named the winner for the division, beating hundreds of other nominees.

Huge congratulations, well deserved!
