Our Activities Coordinators are committed to organising a mix of activities and events that cater to all tastes, which includes minibus outings to nearby places of interest and visits from animal trusts, local school choirs, musicians and entertainers.

Life at Oxford Beaumont Care Community
A Festive Week at Oxford Beaumont
Another busy week at Oxford Beaumont as we countdown to Christmas.
Festivities included a trip to a local garden centre, wreath and gingerbread house making as well as singing along to Christmas songs and carols with the help of our incredibly talented entertainers.
‘It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas, everywhere you go…’
A Christmas Pantomime!
Tickled Pink Productions joined us for some morning entertainment, engaging with residents through songs, dance and chants!
It was a wonderful festive show, enabling residents to feel like they are at the theatre but in the comfort of the home!
The performers had great enthusiasm and residents expressed how much they enjoyed the show afterwards.
Disney Day!
At Oxford Beaumont we recently had a day celebrating all things Disney!
We reminisced about all our favourite stories, films and characters… and we even spotted a few around the home!
One of our favourite duos, the King and Rackham, joined us for a beautiful morning of classical tunes and entertainment.
The day was topped off with Disney songs and a glass of sherry and mince pies!
Halloween Celebrations
Here at the Oxford Beaumont we had a spooktacular day getting into the Halloween spirit!
We always love an opportunity to get dressed up and Halloween was the perfect occasion to find out our broomsticks and dust off our hats!
Residents had fun carving pumpkins to display around the home and enjoyed a game of Halloween Bingo, along with trying some scary snacks…!
2024 Care Awards
Staff, residents and loved ones joined together to watch the livestreaming of the Barchester Care Awards which took place in Manchester!
As a community we are incredibly proud to announce that one of our team was a winner!
CONGRATULATIONS to Paulina who was awarded ‘Home Administrator of the Year!!!’
The recognition was truly deserved and a brilliant achievement to have made! There are over 250 homes within Barchester and we couldn’t be prouder.
Bonfire Night
Residents had a sparkling time celebrating Bonfire Night.
The celebrations started with a banging performance from pianist Tim Valentine in the lounge which was followed by hot chocolate, served with cream and marshmallows!
Then staff and residents enjoyed lighting sparklers in the garden whilst chatting and sharing memories about celebrating the occasion with families and friends.
