A visit from some furry friends!
Yesterday residents enjoyed a visit from some furry friends in the form of Tom and Jerry the Guinea Pigs and Gromit the Rabbit.
Animal therapy is very important to our residents and it was amazing to hear how many of our residents had these animals as pets during the years, this created the opportunity for some lovely moments of memory sharing.
Thank you to Rachel from Ryedale Animal Group for bringing them, we look forward to the next visit.

The day the farm came to visit
Stamford Bridge Beaumont care home, in Stamford Bridge, was full of animal mischief on Thursday when the farm came to visit the home. Residents at Stamford Bridge Beaumont were pleasantly surprised to see animals such as Guinea Pigs and Rabbits roaming around their Lounge as Ryedale Animals Group paid a visit.
General Manager Emma Smith said: “Our residents have really enjoyed their unusual visitors today. We knew that having the farm here would be a bit of fun for all our residents, especially as some find it difficult to go on many outings in our minibus. We are always looking for new activities for the residents and today we have seen the seen the enjoyment and the therapeutic influence animals can have on people.”
World Book Day
Here at Stamford Bridge Beaumont our bookshelves were bulging as we celebrated World Book Day in style.
The day promotes reading for pleasure, so our residents decided to host a discussion about their favourite books and authors, and to join a storytelling session.
We tested our knowledge with a book quiz and got involved in a variety of themed activities such as exploring Beatrix Potter activity book from Oomph Wellness, making recycled bookmarks for the occasion and learning more about the story of World Book Day.
Some of our lovely colleagues even got dressed up for the occasion!
A trip to the local coffee shop
