Activities at Southgate Beaumont Care Community

Our activities team are great at building the activities programme around the likes and interests of the people we care for. Ensuring that our social events offer fun and adventure is part of the ethos of our home; it’s important that those we support can enjoy an active and social lifestyle. Of course, there will always be those who prefer peace and quiet, and in these instances, a cup of tea and a chat are always welcomed.

Activities Coordinator

Hello My name is Zoe, I have been in the life enrichment team at Southgate Beaumont since December 2021.

I am originally from Liverpool and moved to London in 1997 after being accepted at Mountview Theatre school. After graduating I worked as an actress and accomplished voiceover artist for many years. I also have a vast amount customer service experience, working in many West End Theatres, as Cabin crew for Virgin Atlantic and at Claridges hotel in Mayfair. 

Zoe has a passion for making strong connections with people and creating lasting memorable experiences.

We provide a wide range of both home led and community led activity for all residents as well as personalised and individual hobby and interest focused events. Our programme ranges from cocktail making, to art history talks, exercise sessions as well as fine dining dinner parties catered for by our chefs

I have made lots of lovely new friends at Southgate Beaumont care home and look forward to making many more.

Life at Southgate Beaumont Care Community

Celebrating St David’s Day.

We had a wonderful day celebrating St David’s Day. We decorated the home with daffodils and had a lovely social gathering with some delicious cheese and biscuits and of course a glass or two of wine. 

Sunday afternoon concert.

Thank you to all the children from Crescendo School of Music for your beautiful performances. The students accompanied by their teachers and their families entertained us all with a wonderful concert, 

What a pleasure for our residents to see such young and upcoming talent in our home.

A perfect way to spend a rainy afternoon, with a book club.

A perfect way to spend a rainy afternoon with the U3A book group.

All our residents are welcome to join in these U3A groups and we now have a great choice to choose from.

Monthly French, History, Science and book groups all take place within the home and are a great opportunity to meet new friends and learn new things.

Happy Valentines Day.

A wonderful afternoon celebrating love and friendship no matter what our age!

With some delicious chocolate truffles, a fun filled Valentines themed Bingo and plenty of hugs all round.

Wishing everyone a very Happy Valentines Day

 

Classical performance by The Kyan Quartet.

A spectacular performance to liven up our Wednesday from the classical performers of Kyan Quartet.

Residents embarked on a musical journey through France, America and back to England, giving us a taste of musical styles from around the world.

It’s always a pleasure to see such young talent and residents really enjoyed their modern take in classical styles.

Thank you to Live Music Now who have sent some amazing musicians into our home.

 

Happy Burns Night!

Burns Night was a great success.

With the whisky flowing and a delicious lunch of Hagis, prepared by our chef Dan, we really enjoyed each others company.

We also had the pleasure of listening to Robert Byrnes poetry, sang beautifully by one of our residents.

Many thanks to everyone who came along.
