Our New Sensory Garden
Our New Sensory Garden , A Space to Relax, Connect and Thrive
We are delighted to introduce our beautiful sensory garden, designed to enhance wellbeing and provide a peaceful outdoor space for residents, families and visitors to enjoy. Featuring colourful flowers, fragrant plants, accessible pathways and comfortable seating, the garden encourages relaxation, reminiscence and meaningful engagement with nature. Residents can take part in gardening activities, social gatherings and quiet moments outdoors, promoting both physical and emotional wellbeing. Particularly beneficial for those living with dementia, the sensory garden offers calming sensory experiences and reflects our commitment to creating enriching environments where residents can truly thrive.
At Badgeworth Court, we believe that spending time outdoors can have a positive impact on happiness, independence and overall health. Our sensory garden reflects our commitment to creating enriching environments where every resident can continue to live life to the fullest.
Trips out at Badgeworth
At Badgeworth Court, we believe that meaningful experiences and staying connected with the local community are vital to wellbeing. Regular day trips provide residents with opportunities to socialise, reminisce and enjoy new experiences, promoting confidence, independence and happiness.
Our residents love visits to Dobies Garden Centre, where they can enjoy the seasonal displays and refreshments, and outings to Pinkesh Coffee Shop for coffee and conversation with friends. Most recently, residents enjoyed a delightful afternoon at Beauty and the Teacup, sharing delicious treats and creating special memories together.
These outings support emotional wellbeing, reduce isolation and help residents continue living life to the fullest
Meaningful Moments
At Elderwood House, activities are shaped around the interests and preferences of the people who live here. Residents recently enjoyed a game of Rummikub and interactive sessions on our Magic Table, sharing conversation, laughter and time together.
These person-centred moments support independence, encourage social connection and help residents continue enjoying the hobbies and interests that are important.
