Activities at Bedewell Grange Care Home

Residents and staff at Bedewell Grange welcome relatives and the local community to join in the fun at their annual summer fete that was held at the home in August.

The home hosted a variety of activities throughout the day, including Flash – the magician, live music and sing along from Robyn and her Ukulele. We also a clay modelling session from Linsey from hen power.

We also had stalls from VP scent, Party Parlour and   Crafty Mademoiselle., which were enjoyed by everyone who came to the event.

We had a lovely afternoon tea on Sunday 4th August at our Mad Hatter’s Afternoon Tea Party. Family and residents chatted and enjoyed a delicious afternoon tea made by our wonderful kitchen staff. It’s so important for our residents and their families to share special moments and make new memories together.

We have been enjoying the beautiful weather here at Bedewell Grange by hosting some of our activities outside.

We all thoroughly enjoyed our mocktail making class; we blended strawberries, blueberries and mint, and then we added our favourite fruit juices and lemonade to make our very own bespoke delicious mocktails!

We reminisced about our favourite holidays in the sun, and enjoyed an afternoon of chatting and singing our favourite songs.

A lovely afternoon was had by all!

It’s been another fun packed week for the residence at Bedewell Grange: from balloon tennis, chair aerobics to cookery and veggie art!

Residents thoroughly enjoyed making their own lemon drizzle cupcakes, which were especially prepared for their afternoon tea.

Jill the activities coordinator commented “Residents felt very proud of themselves and their delicious creations! It’s so important for our residence to still feel a sense of independence and achievement in their lives with us at Bedewell Grange. - Well done everyone!”

It’s been a busy week for Residents at Bedewell Grange from Wimbledon, baking, ten-pin bowling to arts and crafts. Residents joined together over morning coffee and cake for a creative craft session at the home.

The craft session was hosted by Jill, Activities Coordinator and everyone added their own creative input and designs to the colourful morning. The colourful creations are now displayed proudly in the home’s conservatory for all their guests to see and admire. It was such a lovely way to spend the day.

Bedewell Grange are pleased to be supported by HenPower in enriching the lives of the residents with an array of regular activities, including the delight of new friends – the hens who have all been individually named by the residents.
