Life at Southgate Beaumont Care Community
The power of musical reminiscence
Musical reminiscence has always been so powerful, so it was lovely to dance our way into the weekend, enjoying a trip down memory lane with Colin Fenn.
Colin has a lovely gentle nature and plays a wonderful selection of music from across the decades. He also puts us through our musical knowledge with his informative quiz.
One resident told me how lovely it was to remember times gone by and that his music had provoked some special memories.
We look forward to seeing him again next month.

Exceptionally talented group Canario perform.
On a beautiful sunny afternoon , we were treated to such a stunning performance from the exceptionally talented ladies that make up the group Canario.
Named after the Canary, this trio plays some beautiful compositions and both the cello and the violin that they play, date all the way back to the 17th century.
The girls took us on a journey through history with their music and it really was a privilege to watch their performance.
The girls like to wear yellow as an ode to their favourite bird!

A stunning afternoon of music with one of our favourite Cellists.
Angel has been playing the Cello since he was 4 years old and today brought his magical mix of his own compositions and some favourite classics into the home.
Residents seemed so captivated by his playing and they really didn’t want the concert to end.
