Activities at Lindum House Care Home
Our fantastic Activities Coordinators make sure that there is a full programme of social events to suit all interests and capabilities. They aim to not only to stimulate, but to ensure that everyone involved has lots of fun. We enjoy trips out visiting local places of interest or just to explore, which inevitably ends up with us having a lovely lunch somewhere.
There are regular concerts that we hold in the home that allows us to have a good old singalong, and our community links include the local churches, knit and natter groups and toddler groups coming in to see residents.
On a daily basis, everyone enjoys a variety of activities, including quizzes, bingo, arts and crafts, reminiscing and movement to music. We also host movie afternoons on the big screen which, of course, involves popcorn and ice cream at the interval!
Any residents who are unable to join us in the communal areas for activities have one-to-one time in their rooms, with us either reading to them, chatting or anything else they wish to do that’s within their capabilities.
Kelly Rolph
Hi there, I'm Kelly. My role at Lindum House ensures all of our residents always have lots of fun activities to look forward too.
I grew up down south, my parents worked in news trade & I've lived in many places! I've lived in hull for 20 years now, worked in health and social care for around 15 years, I started on care, worked through domestic, kitchen assistant and found my calling with activities!
I'm a super social person, enjoy being busy and sing in my spare time. I am part of a small singing charity group 'guise & gals'. I've been singing karaoke since I was 18 but never had the confidence to take it any further. I do, however, love putting on a show for our residents!
I'm a strong believer in 'treat people how you wish to be treated' everyone is different and it's important to focus on each individuals wants and needs, to encourage and nurture life, you only live once!
I'm full of energy, providing there is music... it's good for my soul!
Our residents smiles are my reward, it makes me so happy to see them enjoying them selves.

Life at Lindum House Care Home
Sweet Treats Galore
Residents from Lindum House enjoyed an afternoon of baking, which took them back to their younger years. After baking, residents decorated their homemade shortbread biscuits to spread the love to the hard working staff to say thank you for all that they do. They tasted very good too!
Residents enjoy spending time in the kitchen, as it not only brings back memories of their childhood, but also times when they’ve baked with their own children and grandchildren. Once all the treats were made, we all enjoyed sitting down with a cup of tea and a home-made cake.
True Love
We were thrilled to welcome Ronnie for a few weeks respite break. During his stay, his lovely wife joined him at a concert, even getting up for a dance—true Love!
Sometimes it gets lonely, whether you are retired or not, and we look for some companionship. Our residents like to meet new people and make friends, and they definitely like to enjoy time together. They make new friends and create beautiful memories, and we can’t wait to see Ronnie and his wife again soon.
Birthday Celebrations
Residents and guests at Lindum House care home in Beverley enjoyed an afternoon of grins with a live music performance that took place at the home. The Saltmarsh Duo and the Saltmarsh duo-pianist performed a selection of classic hits.
The concert has been made possible thanks to the generosity of the Joseph and Annie Cattle Trust, and has been organised by Laura Osbourne from the Music in Hospitals and Care.
The day was made even more special for 2 off our residents who celebrated their birthdays, fun was had by all.
Open Day
We enjoyed our open day with live entertainment and cakes made by our lovely Harley, who volunteered to come in with lovely cakes for our residents. Harley is son to one of our hard working domestic team member. Thank you, Harley!
In the Mood for Dancing
There is nothing better than getting up for a good dance with the girls. Here, Marie is always the first up.
At the Movies
We went along to the local cinema for the Christmas Dementia Friendly Screening, which is run by Dementia Friendly East Riding. We are proud here at Lindum to support this amazing charity, and our lovely ladies enjoyed meeting Santa aka Simon Foster Head of Dementia Friendly East Riding.
