Activities at Reigate Beaumont Care Home
Our specialist activities staff are committed to organising and delivering a fun mix of activities and events chosen by the residents here at Reigate Beaumont. We work closely with the local community who get involved in all kinds of activities within the home. We enjoy all kinds of events which could be anything from trips out to local places of interest in our minibus or visits from entertainers and musicians, spending time in our beautiful gardens, or providing great activities for the mind body and soul. We liaise with local churches and regularly hold multi-congregational services at the home.
It is important to us that each individual who we support can get as much from these as possible, so we try our best to arrange activities that reflect their interests and capabilities, and encourage them to participate in any way they can. We also encourage relatives to join with activities and invite them to our regular events. We also have a variety of volunteers who really enjoy spending time within the home too.

Each resident is unique and as an Activity Coordinator, I aim to create meaningful activities whereby residents can feel at home. From quizzes to games, stretch classes to flower arranging, reminiscing to enjoying our beautiful gardens. From musicians to Namaste sessions, outings, intergenerational and community involvement – a balanced activity program of body, mind and soul allows each resident to feel as if they have purpose and meaning in their lives. As well as sitting and having meaningful one to one engaged conversation or holding your loved ones hand – can allow a resident to feel that Reigate Beaumont is their home. With a background as a Healthcare Assistant, we are taught to provide person centred care. This has helped me to provide person centred activities.

After decorating the home for the day, residents honoured Armistice Day with celebrations. They were listening to wartime music, dancing to it and enjoying a glass if sherry before lunch.

Summer Fête
Residents and guests enjoyed live music on the terrace, watching our first ever dog show, a delicious BBQ, ice cream, a tombola, stalls and much more. It was a splendid day with beautiful weather and lots of fun was to be had by all.
Pimm's Afternoon
Everyone loved our Pimm's afternoon. Cheers!
Summer BBQ
We hosted our annual BBQ for residents and their families on Thursday 11th July. We were extremely lucky with the weather this year, so the BBQ took place outdoors as opposed to indoors like last year.
It was a busy afternoon, mainly for the chef, and the residents enjoyed a selection of barbecued meats together with salad, drinks and lovely dry weather! It was a huge success and people say how much they enjoyed themselves.
