Ready Steady Bake!

Our chefs, Nico and Jon, went head-to-head in a fun-filled “Ready, Steady, Bake” challenge, with residents casting their votes using the old style green pepper, red tomato cards, to select their favourite recipe made with limited ingredients.
 
Nico made a carrot, orange and mixed fruit cake, bringing plenty of flair as he zested oranges and kept everyone entertained, while Jon wasted no time getting his delicious stem ginger and banana cake into the oven.
 
There was lots of laughter, interaction and great questions from residents, and plenty of friendly banter, making it a truly enjoyable event for all.
 
And the best bit… the cakes will be available for sale tomorrow! All proceeds will be donated to Barchester’s Charitable Foundation.

Special Moments

What an amazing day at Broadway halls, we had the lovely Debbie Miles come to visit for a very special morning.
 
Today we celebrated the life of one of our much loved residents who so very nearly made it to 100. Debbie was her favourite singer and she didn't disappoint , it was a morning filled with her favourite songs and lots of singing.
 
It was so lovely to be able to hold this special morning to celebrate her life with her friends and her much loved daughter who came along armed with cakes for all the residents.

Monday Movement

Residents enjoyed Monday morning movement with our Activity Coordinator, Claire, keeping active, building strength and balance, and boosting wellbeing as we age is so important for a long and healthy life. Residents really enjoy the class with slow easy to follow movements and ambient music in the background.

Council Ward Surgery

Staff and residents at Stamford Bridge Beaumont care home welcomed neighbours and friends from the local community to a special edition of their weekly coffee morning on Wednesday 22nd April.

Local Councillor Dale Needham hosted the ward surgery as residents from the local community dropped in to meet Cllr Needham as they chatted over tea, coffee, and homemade cakes, and raised questions around local matters.
 

It's a family affair!

Staff and residents were treated to a wonderful afternoon of musical entertainment thanks to three generations of the same talented family of singers.

Paul Julian and his wife, Pat, have been married for over 60 years and have recently moved into Lindum House.  Paul was a regular on the club circuit for many years performing as part of ‘The Society of Mice’ and ‘The Two Cavaliers.’  It was at Pat’s local pub, The Spring Head, where Paul used to sing every week, that they first met.  Their son, Gary Julian, has carried on the family tradition and can regularly be found performing locally in the pubs and clubs. 

Following in their footsteps, grandson Liam Alexander Julian is also a talented singer.  He started young at the age of eight and now performs in tribute acts in the local area.  He joined forces with his dad and, later on in the set, his grandpa too, and three generations of the Julian family entertained the residents.  The Julians sang a whole range of different styles of music from Gene Pitney to Elvis, Neil Diamond and even Nessun Dorma to the delight of the audience.
