Life at Badgeworth Court Care Home
World Animal Time
Residents has a lovely surprise to celebrate World Animal Time! Our home is still closed to people and our 4 legged friends, so team members dressed up as animals for the residents of Memory Lane! It was a morning full of smiles, laughs and sharing animal stories.
Pottery Painting
Creative pottery painting for our residents is an excellent way to keep their mind stimulated and to use the imagination. We decorated little pumpkins to decorated our lovely home.
Celebrating Cliff
We celebrated Cliff Richard's birthday in style. Our residents had a fun quiz about Cliff Richard, followed by a round of 'Name That Tune' based on music from the 1960s.
We brought the music of Cliff Richard to all the communities at Badgeworth, bringing back many memories of music and we reminisced with stories from the 1960s, including our resident, Terry, who told us about when he met the man himself!
It was a great afternoon enjoyed by all, especially our resident, Ray, who shared with us a CD of some of his favourite 60s singers.
BBQ & Ukulele Group
What a busy and fun day at Badgeworth Court, enjoying some late summer sunshine!
The Cheltenham Ukulele Group gave us a concert in the garden, entertaining residents with some upbeat singalong tunes.
This was followed by some colourful and delicious fruity cocktails provided by the Portuguese community of Cheltenham.
Residents and team members then enjoyed a wonderful BBQ prepared for us by our magnificent chef.
