Activities at Bushey House Beaumont 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.

Tina Stovey

Activities Lead /Diversity Champion

I started working at Bushey House Beaumont in 2022 in an activities role that I absolutely love. There are very few jobs that offer the daily satisfaction and fulfilment that mine does. I am delighted to be able to play my part in helping to bring joy and laughter into our residents’ daily lives and offer them an interesting choice of events to do just that.

Activities and Events Partnerships

As part of our bespoke life-enrichment programmes, we host a number of live virtual events in the home on a regular basis through a number of partnerships with places of interest and world class performance companies

Life at Bushey House Beaumont Care Home

Christmas party celebrations

Residents and their family and friends enjoyed our annual Christmas party at Bushey House. There was live music and a fantastic hot buffet prepared by our in house chef Avni and his team. Our staff joined in the festivities with our residents and their guests and everyone agreed it was a fantastic afternoon.

Miniature horse and lamb visit Bushey House

Bushey House residents were delighted to meet Grayson the miniature horse and Luna the lamb, all dressed up in their Christmas costumes. Everyone enjoyed getting the chance to stroke them and, in some cases, hold the lamb.  We were joined by some of the pupils from St Hilda’s school who also loved meeting and learning about the animals. We have monthly visits from Performing Pets who surprise residents with the different animals they bring.

Residents and staff decorate Christmas trees

Residents and staff enjoyed working together to adorn our beautiful Grade Two listed home with seasonal decorations. Residents had fun getting in touch with their creative side as they helped adorn our Christmas trees and making Bushey House even more beautiful.

Christmas card crafting

Arts and crafts were on the menu at Bushey House as residents got stuck in (pun intended!) making their own Christmas cards to share with loved ones. We offer regular arts and crafts sessions as part of our activity programme with a wide variety of activities that are fun and suitable for all.

Diwali celebrated at Bushey House

Residents, family and friends enjoyed a Diwali celebration at Bushey House Beaumont. Members of our staff performed traditional Indian dances and delivered a presentation on the meaning of Diwali. Everybody enjoyed a delicious feast of traditional Indian snacks all brought in by our staff and prepared by our chef Shaun.

ENABLE goes live!

Staff and residents of Bushey House came together to celebrate the launch of our new digital system Enable. This new electronic recording system ensures all care documentation and life enrichment activities are recorded digitally on tailor made handsets. This more efficient recording process will provide a better service for our residents due to increased efficiency.Well done to all involved in the huge task of transposing our paper documents to the new system!
