Activities at Oxford Beaumont Care Community
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. We also undertake one-to-one activities for residents who are unable to participate in group sessions, and encourage loved ones to join in whenever they can.

Life at Oxford Beaumont Care Community
Fun Times for All
Domino’s, board game’s, creativity and fun interactions between staff and fellow residents is a great way to lift everyone's mood and for continued well-being. One to one or in a group, its a great way to learn more about one another.
Bonfire Night Fun
Our residents have had a fun-filled, busy day celebrating Bonfire Night. We started our morning with seated ribbon dance, enhancing mood and mobility, followed by group discussions on Guy Fawkes. This afternoon we shared our creative flair by decorating and eating bonfire inspired cupcakes.
Festival Of Lights - Diwali
Today the residents made some wonderful paper lanterns for the celebration of Diwali.
The Festival of Lights, which has been celebrated for over 2,500yrs!
The residents made their lanterns from card and added some flowers on them to make it pretty and colourful. After some cutting, bending and gluing together they created some magnificent lanterns, which are now on display in the lounge and as night time falls the candles glow inside.
Happy Halloween Everyone
Our residents and staff had a very happy Halloween yesterday!
The day was filled with fancy dress and spooky treats whilst being entertained by the wonderful Fiona Harrison. Residents enjoyed singing and dancing along to old favourites accompanied by a glass of bubbly.
The residents had such a memorable afternoon they asked if we could do it again today! Happy Halloween from us all.
Pamper Session
Residents enjoyed a lovely pamper session courtesy of our activities team. Hand massages, nails filed and painted to a beautiful pink colour. Then relaxing with moisturising face masks. Our residents felt so glam with the nails and a fresh feeling to the face, they sat back and relaxed for the afternoon with a wonderful glass of Prosecco.
Gardening Club
Our gardening club have been working hard planting seed and potting autumnal blooms. The plants came courtesy of another resident who kindly donated her own plants for the group to repot. It's always a lovely session as the ladies are non stop chatting and reminiscing throughout.
