Here at Lindum House, we enjoyed our annual trip to Hull Fair. We took in the sights and reminisced about days gone by. Everyone had a great day!
Meet our Activities Coordinator, Kelly Scott
Hello, my name is Kelly Scott, and I’ve been organising activities at Lindum House since 2015 and I really enjoy the pleasure I get from doing it. I previously worked on a Memory Lane community as a Carer in a different Barchester home for 4 years, supporting individuals living with dementia.
Activities at Lindum House
Our fantastic Activities Coordinators make sure that there is a full programme of social events to suit all interests and capabilities. They aim to not only to stimulate, but to ensure that everyone involved has lots of fun. We enjoy trips out visiting local places of interest or just to explore, which inevitably ends up with us having a lovely lunch somewhere.
There are regular concerts that we hold in the home that allows us to have a good old singalong, and our community links include the local churches, knit and natter groups and toddler groups coming in to see residents.
On a daily basis, everyone enjoys a variety of activities, including quizzes, bingo, arts and crafts, reminiscing and movement to music. We also host movie afternoons on the big screen which, of course, involves popcorn and ice cream at the interval!
Any residents who are unable to join us in the communal areas for activities have one-to-one time in their rooms, with us either reading to them, chatting or anything else they wish to do that’s within their capabilities.

Meeting the Bee Lady
At the East Riding Care Home Games, we were star-struck when we met the lovely Jean from Age UK. We really enjoyed the afternoon and participating in the events.
Thank You to Our Volunteers
When our Activities Coordinator, Kelly Scott, was off work for 6 weeks, our lovely volunteers went above and beyond to help out with the activities here at Lindum, so we want to say thank you – we appreciate everything you did and continue to do.
Memory Walk
On 30th September, here at Lindum House, we walked across the Humber Bridge in aid off Alzheimer’s Society. The lovely ladies, Barbara and Barbara, with help from Jacqui’s grandsons, walked the 7km walk, along with 3,000 others. Well done, ladies!

Gung-Ho for MS
On Saturday 29th September, here at Lindum House, we had two volunteers run the 5k obstacle race on behalf of Lindum House and to raise awareness for MS. Jacqui’s grandson, Harvey, and his friend, Jack, proudly represented Lindum House and did us all proud. Well, done boys!
It's Time to Shine!
Here at Lindum House, we hosted a charity car wash in the local Co-op's car park with the help from the Tickton Pythons' Football Club. We were raising money for Barchester's Charitable Foundation and we would like to say a big thank you to Brenda from the Co-up and also the the Tickton Python boys.
