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
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.

A Poem from a Relative
Former relative, David, wrote a wonderful poem about Bushey House:
Bushey House
Care is there
Beneath the golden sun
Below forgiving roofs
Under the watchful eyes
Of those who chose
To ease another's path
In search of love and joy
And they are here
In equal measure.
Informing the Community
It was another successful day in our local community; we set up an information stand, offering advice regarding care and networking with potential volunteers.
Care Home Open Day
We opened our doors to the community on 15th June and were pleased to welcome the new Deputy Mayor of Hertsmere, Councillor Brenda Batten, who had a tour of the home and chatted to residents.
In addition, our doors were also opened as a holding centre for donations for victims of the tragic Grenfell Tower fire in west London. Over 150 bags of donated goods were collected by our local community and brought to our home for onward distribution.
