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.
Karyn Borngräber
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.

Life at Reigate Beaumont Care Home
Remembrance Day
Folks at the home got together to release balloons in memory of those residents who are no longer with us.
Classic Car Show
Residents, loves ones, visitors and staff members had a fun-filled day that included live entertainment from Ashford & Locke, craft stalls, a tombola, children's games, vintage ice cream and much more.
Summer Jazz Concert
Party goers enjoyed the annual event, held in the stunning gardens of the Reigate Beaumont, which was hosted by Age UK. Residents, staff, loved ones and visitors were treated to some smooth summer jazz and picnics and were joined by the Mayor of Reigate & Banstead. The atmosphere was hot, although the weather was not. The event raised £1445.00 for the charity.
93rd Birthday Celebrations
A resident recently celebrated her 93rd birthday with a visit from the Challenge Group, who have been volunteering at the home.
Moroccan Day
Belly dancers helped to set the mood for our Moroccan Day and Roman, our Head Chef, used his creative talents to produce an interesting menu.
International Chocolate Day
Cheers! The first customer of the day at our plant sale was given a glass of chocolate liqueur to celebrate International Chocolate Day.
