Life at Stamford Bridge Beaumont Care Home
Virtual talk from journalist and novelist, Mike Gayle
We had a great time joining journalist and novelist, Mike Gayle, for an intriguing virtual interview, during which he shared top tips for creative writing with our residents and read passages from his latest book, All the Lonely People.
We were thrilled to find out about Mike’s background, to understand what led him to become a writer and his creative process.
It was a lovely talk, enjoyed by all, especially by our keen writers at the home.
Residents enjoy a Virtual Cruise Experience
We had a lovely time joining Paul Hawkins and Lisa Richards from Unilever for an exciting Virtual Cruise experience.
Our residents were welcomed with mocktails as Lisa and Paul took them on a magical journey to 3 mystery destinations, which were uncovered after a few clues.
Paul demonstrated how to create a few of the local traditional dishes, which our residents had the opportunity to try too.
The event evoked lots of great memories and it was truly enjoyed by all.
Ryedale Animal Farm visit
Residents enjoyed a visit from Rachel from, Ryedale Animal Farm, Rachel brought along her runner ducklings who were a hit with the residents who were able to feed them and interact with them, we are already looking forward to their next visit to see how much they have grown.
Mindful colouring
Colouring has been shown to have many benefits to peoples motor skills and coordination. Colouring is an activity that we try and ensure is available to our resident’s throughout the day. Residents enjoy their regular arts and craft sessions.
