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
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
Bake Off
This is our winning entry for our Care Home Open Day Bake Off. The cake was specially made by one of our Carers - Riza - and her husband, Andy, can be seen collecting the first prize gift for her here.
Thank you to everyone who submitted an entry.
Summer Sunshine
The ladies of Lindum have been making the most of the summer sunshine by chilling out in the garden and drinking tea.
Pancake Day Fun
Here at Lindum House, we have had great fun flipping pancakes and, most importantly, eating them. Residents took turns flipping them to see who could flip them the highest. They tried pancakes with treacle, sugar and lemon - and some with chocolate on them.
58th Wedding Anniversary
Mr. & Mrs Cook celebrated their 58th wedding anniversary. Everyone at the home wished them many more happy years to come.
Coffee Morning at Morrisons
We went to our local Morrisons in Beverley for our weekly coffee morning. Residents enjoyed latte's and toasted teacakes, then we walked around to do a bit of shopping. The weather was good and everyone appreciated the fresh air and sunshine.
Ted's Poem
Resident, Ted, wrote a fantastic poem to celebrate the culture of Hull. Ted was born and bred in hull and has been married to his wife, Norma, for 58 years and they have just celebrated their 58th wedding anniversary.
Ted was diagosed with Parkinson's 10 years ago, but he still likes to read and write. This one was written over 30 years ago. He was president of the Federation of Master Builders and this poem was part of his speech.
Ted ran his own business for many years, but now he lives here at Lindum House and had settled in very nicely.
