Celia Palmer
I’m Celia and I’m the Activity coordinator here at Edgbaston Beaumont. I previously worked as an activity coordinator in a hostel and am enjoying the shift into the residential setting. I have an arts background so enjoy painting and drawing in my spare time, which hopefully I can share my love for with the residents here. I also enjoy reading, travel, live music and looking after my cats! And copious amounts of tea.

Life at Edgbaston Beaumont Care Home
Button Art
We had a lovely afternoon in the Cafe creating button art today. Our residents created hearts in theme for Valentine's Day next week and also tree designs.
It was wonderful for our residents to all gather together, enjoy a chat, tea and coffee and listen to music while they created their colourful button art designs
An Afternoon of Music
Our residents had a fantastic afternoon with Robert and sang, clapped and moved along to the uplifting music of the accordion. Robert also played some of our residents requests as well as all the usual favourites. Everyone had such a great time!
Royal Parks London
Across our services our residents have enjoyed a wonderful live virtual talk about starlings, one of the UK’s most gregarious birds, hosted by Rachel Dowse from The Royal Parks London.
Rachel examined our long history with this bird and the importance of common species to our lives. Our residents had the opportunity to find out more about the great murmuration and why we need to pay special attention to these beauties before it's too late.
The virtual experience was truly enjoyed by all.
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year to everyone. We celebrated in style at our fabulous New Years Eve party with lots of dancing & wonderful musical entertainment from 'Andante' along with plenty of fizz!
Art Exhibition By Local Young People

A Very Merry Christmas
