Life at Badgeworth Court Care Home
Well done Jess!
We are so proud of our wonderful senior carer Jess Limbrick for becoming divisional winner at this years National Barchester care awards. She goes above and beyond for our residents, she always has a smile on her face and nothing is too much to ask. Good luck at the national awards Jess we are all routing for you!
Classical Tea Party
To make the most of the glorious weather, we decided to hold our tea party in the lovely grounds of Badgeworth Court. Finger sandwiches, cakes and scones were served to residents, friends and family on the finest china, whilst the 'King & Rackham Duo' performed on the violin and piano. We all enjoyed sitting in the sunshine, socialising and listening to classical music.
A Walk Around the Grounds
Residents are particularly lucky here at Badgeworth, as the grounds are absolutely stunning. Justin, our Gardener, takes pride in the gardens and the residents love to see him hard at work. We’ve had particularly nice weather over the last few weeks and the sunshine has highlighted the wonderful array of colours that the flowers provide in the grounds. Visiting the sheep, Shetland pony and the horse at the bottom of the garden is a real treat, as the rolling hills of Gloucestershire provide a serene backdrop.
Massage Therapy
Residents at Badgeworth enjoyed a fantastic day of pampering from Lisa Tilley. We converted one of our grand lounges into a spa for the day, with a picturesque room divider, a therapy bed and soft flickering candles. There was relaxing music and a beautiful selection of aromatherapy oils, which were a real treat for residents.
Old Time Singer
Residents at Badgeworth enjoyed a wonderful concert by the beautiful singer, Beccie Marshall. The ‘old time singer' sang all of the residents' favourite songs and had the whole crowd singing along. We are looking forward to Beccie's return, as music therapy is always a hit at the home.
Wildlife Presentation
Residents love all things nature, especially the birds that are regular visitors on the grounds here at Badgeworth Court.
We were joined by Simon Watts, who shoots his own nature videos and presents them to residents, teaching us about all the animals. Residents and family members really enjoyed the show and were keen to ask questions.
