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.

Life at Southgate Beaumont Care Community

Art Therapy

Residents at Southgate enjoyed a lovely afternoon of Art therapy this week and it was amazing to see everyone being so creative and enjoying time together.

With the guidance from a lovely art therapist we all sat together, learning how to use a multitude of materials and watercolours.

We had some beautiful pictures and a great understanding by the end of the session.

All materials and the lesson provided have been donated by an amazing company called Colart. They will be coming along on a regular basis to keep teaching us the benefits of Art therapy and residents are very much looking forward to their next lesson next week.

International Women's Day

We had a lovely time here at Southgate Beaumont celebrating all woman for International woman's day. From the nurses, care staff residents and family members we wanted everyone to feel appreciated and special. Residents were treated to an inspirational talk from Rabeya Imran who was awarded the WOMAN IN FINANCE AWARD 2022.

We then had some delicious homemade cakes and cookies prepared by our chef Dan.

A Visit from Tottenham Hotspurs Foundation

We had a  fantastic visit from the Tottenham Hotspurs foundation recently,  bringing a wonderful talk on the history of woman's football.

We had a great open discussion and learned that the first football game actually played dated back to the 1800s!

Accompanied by wonderful photos of the first Woman's football team it was such an interesting afternoon.
