VE Day Celebrations

On 8th May, team members and residents at Badgeworth Court marked the anniversary of VE Day, also known as Victory in Europe Day, by organising a variety of special activities.

The home was specially decorated with flags, banners and displays.  The residents got involved in a sing-along by the window, provided by our lovely Rebecca. It was a great afternoon full of dance, themed talks quizzes and crosswords.

Victory in Europe Day is the day celebrating the formal acceptance by the Allies of World War II of Germany’s unconditional surrender of its armed forces on Tuesday, 8 May 1945, marking the end of World War II in Europe.

Out & About... Finally

We would like to announce our first trip in 2021 at Badgeworth Court Care Centre. Our lovely trip has been organised to find the treasures of Cheltenham, with drinks and sandwiches made by our Chef.

St Patrick's Day

We celebrated this special occasion in true Irish spirit. There were tunes of Irish music, a selection of beers and plenty of green outfits. We also watched the Cheltenham horse racing festival.

Our team members prepared an Irish chair dancing session on our Memory Lane Community, suitable for those of all abilities.

It was a great day with lots of smiles and positive energy in all the communities.

Gardening Club

Our residents and team members have enjoyed getting out in sunshine in our gardens and being creative and cultivating their own home-grown vegetables.

We had a relaxing Gardening Club and enjoyed conversing with each other whilst taking in the spring sunshine.

Mother's Day

To celebrate Mother's Day, our residents enjoyed being made to feel very special.

It was a day of smiles and gift-giving and receiving cards and flowers. Our team members provided a gift to each lady in Badgeworth Court, along with a gift card from Holy Trinity Church. The home was decorated for the day, as was our visiting suite, where residents had visits from family and friends. Our residents enjoyed a delicious lunch provided by our Chef.

It was a very special day with our residents, relatives and team members.

Connecting with Kids

We were delighted to have a Zoom call with year 1 at St Gregory's Catholic Primary School to share songs and answer questions from our young friends.

We are very excited to do this again!
