Activities at Beeston View Memory Lane Community
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.
Luisa Painemilla
Hi there, I'm Luisa, Activities Co-ordinator at Iddenshall Hall.
I have worked with the elderly over 8 years and also for fifteen years in the social field as an Activities Coordinator for different social groups in three countries. I have a Degree in Social Integration, a Certificate in Theatrical Psychology and a Music Therapy certificate. In the past I have worked for local authorities and in a cerebral palsy home.
My work is very rewarding and it is a pleasure planning events and activities each month. I enjoy interacting with Residents and learning about their interests, preferences and experiences.
Look out for our activities and events - you are welcome to join us!

Life at Beeston View Memory Lane Community
Bingo Session
Residents from Beeston View and Iddenshall joined together to enjoyed a large group bingo session. It was a lovely chance for residents to socialist with each other and have some fun.
Animal Therapy
Our newest pet therapy dog, Anya, is still popular at both Iddenshall Hall and Beeston View. Residents love that she is small enough to sit on their knee and enjoy the tricks she performs for them. She is very popular and she gets a lot of treats when she visits.
Winter Newsletter
Christmas Dinner
Residents were treated to a lovely Christmas dinner with all the trimmings, crackers and plenty of festive tipples. The party hats were out and we served Prosecco with the meal, as well as cocktails in the lounge afterwards, all whilst enjoying some Christmas musical entertainment.
Christmas Preparations
In the lead up to Christmas, residents have been helping to make Christmas cards and ornaments. Everyone loved doing their part!
Christmas Pamper Day
We opened our salon doors for a special Christmas pamper day. Residents from both Beeston View and Iddenshall Hall were able to attend. They had both their hair and nails done ready for our festive celebrations. It was a lovely experience for them!
