Activities at Chorleywood Beaumont Care Home
Our Activities Coordinators are constantly striving to mentally and physically stimulate those we support by organising group and individual activities for anyone and everyone to participate in. There are regular weekly outings in the minibus to nearby places of interest including the local theatre and Cathedral's as well as visits from PAT dogs, visiting zoos, musicians and entertainers. We also host evenings such as our Pizza & Quiz Night that we encourage relatives to come to. Activities are one of the most important aspects of a care home, so it is essential that our team are dedicated to ensuring that residents are entertained, and that life at Chorleywood Beaumont Care Community is fun and active.

I joined Barchester in November 2016 as an senior care assistant and in May 2024 I became the Activity Lead at Chorleywood Beaumont.
It is a joy to work with such a great team and nothing makes me happier to bring joy and laughter into our residents daily lives.

Life at Chorleywood Beaumont Care Home
Lunch Outing
We all enjoyed a lovely lunch outing at Ethorpe Hotel recently. As always, everyone at the hotel was brilliant and ensured that we have a lovely afternoon.

Bonfire Night
Bonfire Night was once again a roaring success. Wrapped up warm, we all gathered outside in the garden to watch the gorgeous fireworks whizz across our sky. The maintenance team once again did a phenomenal job of creating a spectacular show! We had a ‘Hot Chocolate’ station with marshmallows, whipped cream and sprinkles to keep us warm as we watched the roaring fire. We can certainly say that Chorleywood Bonfire Night went out with a bang!
Making a Guy
We had a hilarious afternoon making our ‘Guy’ for Bonfire Night, reminiscing about how we used to make them with our children! We left our handsome Guy (if we do say so ourselves) sat in the lounge reading a paper until we needed him. It was safe to say we gave all the night staff a fright when they found him in his armchair in the corner.
Decorating Pumpkins
We decided to stay away from spooky & scary this year, so we decorated our pumpkins with shimmering golds and bright whites in an array of different patterns, which we thought was much more effective!
Zoolab
We were recently joined by the amazing Zoolab, who came along with some creepy crawlies to tell us a bit more about some of their fascinating friends! We were all very brave and we stroked snakes, made friends with a tarantula, held a tree frog and became buddies with a couple of gerbils! We all had a fantastic day and learned a lot. Thanks, Zoolab, for coming and teaching us that not all 'creepy crawlies' are in fact, creepy!
