Life at Badgeworth Court Care Home
Memory Cafe with Mindsong
We had a wonderful afternoon at Badgeworth Court's Memory Cafe, it was packed with residents and families alike. Thank you to Mindsong whose weekly visits are always so enjoyed by our residents, everyone joined in with well-known songs like "Bring me Sunshine" and "If you were the Only Girl in the World" and with so many people the singing could be heard all around.
Thank you to our hospitality team for the homemade cakes and cheesecake which all went! We are hoping for many more Mindsong sessions in the garden over the coming months, thank you to this wonderful group of volunteers.
Residents on Top of the World
Residents were at "The Top of the World" this week as they enjoyed a tribute to The Carpenters from Mini Concerts it was such an enjoyable performance. Everyone knows The Carpenters' songs, so many classics and it was a nice change to have songs from one artist.
Trip to Gloucestershire Airport
Badgeworth Court residents recently went on a very different trip out. We visited Gloucestershire Airport at Staverton, Pat, David and Daphne had a great time watching the planes. We then enjoyed tea and tasty cake in The Aviator Inn watching the planes take off. The trip was a great hit and fun was had by all.
Pub Lunch at the Local
Badgeworth Court residents enjoyed a delicious pub lunch at The Hatherley. Jean, Terry and Ray greatly enjoyed not only the food but also being out, having a good chat and the taking in the atmosphere.
Badgeworth Court's Wishing Tree
What a glorious day it was at Badgeworth Court today, with the sun shinning residents enjoyed afternoon tea and cake outside in our beautiful gardens.
The activities team have created a wishing tree for summer for residents. The wishes can be simple like fancying a particular bar of chocolate through to wanting to visit somewhere special or following an interest. We look forward to reading everyone's wishes.
Happy 90th Birthday Jane
Badgeworth Court were delighted to welcome guitarist and singer Ant to perform at the celebration of Jane's 90th Birthday. Residents greatly enjoyed the selection of songs from the 50s and 60s and Jane had her very own serenade as Corinne bought out the homemade cake. Thank you to Ant for such an enjoyable performance and to the Badgeworth team for marking this very special birthday.
