Activities at Chorleywood Beaumont Care Home

Our Activities Coordinators are constantly striving to mentally and physically stimulate those we support by organising group and individual activities for anyone and everyone to participate in. There are regular weekly outings in the minibus to nearby places of interest including the local theatre and Cathedral's as well as visits from PAT dogs, visiting zoos, musicians and entertainers. We also host evenings such as our Pizza & Quiz Night that we encourage relatives to come to. Activities are one of the most important aspects of a care home, so it is essential that our team are dedicated to ensuring that residents are entertained, and that life at Chorleywood Beaumont Care Community is fun and active.

We'll meet again.

Today we had the pleasure of watching the fabulous Fiona Harrison performing her 1940s Remembrance show "We'll Meet Again". The residents and team really enjoyed the show and sang along to all the songs that bought back fond memories for many of our residents. 

We are always delighted when Fiona performs and look forward to seeing her amazing costumes.

Celebrating the Hindu festival of Diwali

Residents at Chorleywood Beaumont had a brilliant day celebrating the Hindu festival of Diwali, popularly known as the ‘festival of lights’. Residents helped with decorating the home with colourful patterned rangoli and lighting ‘diyas’, small oil lamps which signify the triumph of good over evil. Diwali honours Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth, the lamps help Lakshmi find her way into people’s homes.

Hindu members of the team bought in traditional outfits and the staff dressed up in sari’s and doura suruwal and performed a dance for residents and guests.

Head chef Cristopher and Chef Cristian prepared traditional Indian dishes including a range of warming fragrant curries, spicy samosas, crispy bhajis, chicken tikka and lamb biriyani followed by traditional Indian sweets for everyone to enjoy.

There was a firework display arranged by Adrian the head of maintenance to end the amazing day of celebrations. Everyone gathered in the gardens to watch them.
