Activities at Stamford Bridge Beaumont Care Home
The activity team within our home spend a lot of time committing themselves to organising a range of activities for residents. This includes, pet therapy, trips out to local places of interest, visits from entertainers and musicians, bingo, one to one pamper time, weekly quizzes, coffee mornings, arts and crafts and baking. Activities are considered to be a crucial aspect of our home as residents look forward to upcoming events. As a result, it is essential that our team work together with dedication, to ensure residents are entertained and involved in as many activities as possible.

Life at Stamford Bridge Beaumont Care Home
Game of Darts
This week on our residential community, we decided to see if anyone would fancy a game of darts. We had plenty of residents wanting a go, and who had so much fun. We have decided to have a darts tournament soon and are really looking forward to it. Resident, Ann, who played for the first time in her life, was very good.
Ian Malcolm Sings in Our Home
Our monthly visit from Ian Malcolm was fabulous. We had such a fun time singing along with him. Ian has been coming to us every month for over a year now, so we have all gotten used to him and we look forward to his visits. One of our staff members even sang Islands in the Stream with him - it was brilliant
Thank you, Ian, for singing for us all.
Our Baking Session
Recently, we decided that we wanted to do some baking. The kitchen provided us with some ingredients and we set about making some currant buns. We had a lovely chat whilst doing this, talking about memories of helping our mums bake for the family. The buns we made tasted lovely and we all had a cup of tea and a chat afterwards.
Carla comes to sing in our home
We had a lovely afternoon with Carla who came to sing around our lovely home. Carla can move her equipment quite easily and brings the music to the less mobile residents; they seem to really enjoy listening to it and Carla really does interact with them to try and get them involved.
Playing games in our residential community
We always try to keep the residents active by encouraging lots of physical activity. We also ask them what they enjoy doing and bowls is a popular answer, as well as exercise with the football. There are daily exercise sessions every morning to help motivate residents for the day ahead.
Open Day at Stamford Bridge
Last week we had our open day; as usual, we had lots going on throughout the day. We started with some baking in our life style kitchen. There was also music and singing on Memory Lane and a pamper session on our Derwent community. We concluded the morning with some coffee. The afternoon consisted of music by the sax quartet and we had our very own ice cream bar which went down extremely well with residents. The day was a huge success and we had lots of visitors who were keen to check our home.
