Activities at Lindum House Care Home

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.

Kelly Rolph

Activities Co-ordinator

Hi there, I'm Kelly. My role at Lindum House ensures all of our residents always have lots of fun activities to look forward too.

I grew up down south, my parents worked in news trade & I've lived in many places! I've lived in hull for 20 years now, worked in health and social care for around 15 years, I started on care, worked through domestic, kitchen assistant and found my calling with activities!

I'm a super social person, enjoy being busy and sing in my spare time. I am part of a small singing charity group 'guise & gals'. I've been singing karaoke since I was 18 but never had the confidence to take it any further. I do, however, love putting on a show for our residents! 

I'm a strong believer in 'treat people how you wish to be treated' everyone is different and it's important to focus on each individuals wants and needs, to encourage and nurture life, you only live once!

I'm full of energy, providing there is music... it's good for my soul!

Our residents smiles are my reward, it makes me so happy to see them enjoying them selves.

Life at Lindum House Care Home

Fun with Balloons

Fun with Balloons

Here at Lindum House, we had fun with balloons and bats. Not only did everyone enjoy themselves, but it was a great way to exercise and keep the body moving.

Forget Me Not

Forget Me Not

Here at Lindum House, we are support Dementia UK by attempting to raise awareness in the community. A few residents made a start on decorating 'Forget Me Not' flowers, which will be displayed in the community in April. This is a very good cause and we are very happy to support this.

Furry Friends

Furry Friends

We always like to welcome pets into the home here at Lindum. Here is Emma the dog visiting her beloved family member; not only does it fill her owner with joy, but staff and other residents really love the visits as well.

Movie Time

Movie Time

A while back, residents suggested movies they would like to see again on the big screen, with one of them being Summer Holiday starring Cliff Richard. On hearing this, Margaret's family, pictured above, came in a few days later and kindly donated the film, along with others suggested. We were thrilled and would like to say a big thank you to Margaret and her wonderful family.

A Big Thank You
