Activities at Epsom Beaumont Care Home
At Epsom Beaumont, the daily activities always aim to be enjoyable for all. Our Activities Coordinator is constantly working to mentally and physically stimulate each resident and ensuring that our programme is define moulded to the wants and needs of those we support. We host weekly outings to many local coffee shops, and also some bigger trips to Brighton and the Brooklands Museum. Our outings tend to be a new and exciting experience for residents, but are sometimes repeated for those who could not make the trip the first time. The activity schedule changes weekly, but there are some regularities, such as our crossword and bar nights, where families are invited to join their loved ones for a social evening. Activities are one of the most important aspects of a care home and we are proud to say we have a dedicated Activities Coordinator who is supported by all of the care team to really make it successful. We have received excellent feedback from residents and relatives, which only makes our bond with them stronger.
Louisa Capaldi
I always said when I started working I wanted to have a rewarding job that puts a smile on people’s faces and makes their day just that little bit brighter! I started working in the care sector as a hospitality Assistant, and then became a carer and then the activities coordinator. I really enjoy getting the residents up and moving, and getting active. I enjoy learning new things about the residents and doing meaningful activities with them that they enjoy and benefit from.

Life at Epsom Beaumont Care Home
Residents Meeting with Afternoon Tea
Once a month we have a residents meeting at Epsom Beaumont Care Home. Regular meetings with residents and their family and friends are a really important form of communication, as it gives them the opportunity to be involved in the running of our home, share any suggestions for new activities or any special meal requests. At our January meeting, our Residents enjoyed a delicious afternoon tea and a cheese board prepared by our talented Head Chef, Rostom Abidi.
Barchester’s Big Quiz of The Year
Residents and staff enjoyed taking part in the Live Virtual Event- Barchester’s Big Quiz of the Year! The live virtual event took place on Tuesday 9th January 2024 at 2.30pm. The event was shown on our big TV and We linked up with all our Barchester homes and hospitals across the country for Barchester’s Big Quiz of the Year. We look forward to finding out which Barchester home or hospital has the best quizzers and who will win a fabulous divisional prize!

It’s a great chance to share experiences, make new contacts within the community, and of course, enjoy our wonderful spread provided by our hospitality team!’
Bonfire Night Celebrations
Our residents, relatives and community enjoyed our bonfire night celebrations. Everyone enjoyed watching our firework display, while they enjoyed toasted marshmallows, mulled wine and hot dogs. Everyone had a fantastic time, our residents love to keep these traditions and reminisce about years gone by.
Diwali Celebrations
Diwali is known as the 'festival of lights'. Houses, shops and public places are decorated with small oil lamps called 'diyas’. Staff at Epsom Beaumont have been busy preparing for the Diwali celebrations by decorating some areas of the home with lights, fresh sweet smelling flowers, colourful scarves and fabrics. Staff, residents and friends celebrated Diwali with fireworks, traditional Indian snacks and dancing.
