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
Spreading the Love
Here at Lindum House, we decorated our heart shaped cookies and had lots off messy fun. Our lovely lady, Dorothy, also suggested we spread our love and our appreciation to the wonderful staff by giving them a cookie iced with a kiss. All our staff were given a cookie to say a big thank you for all they do.
Valentine's Tea Party
Here at Lindum house, we celebrated Valentine’s Day by holding a tea party with an assortment off delicious cakes and, of course, lots of tea!
Residents were entertained by Eileen Dunwoodie, the daughter of a resident, who led us in a great singalong.

Also, we enjoyed live entertainment from our fabulous Alf Berry, with special guest, Santa, played by Simon Foster from Dementia UK, who kindly donated his time to come and join us, bringing treats for residents and staff with him.
Little Donkey
We welcomed Brambles the donkey to visit our home and he was welcomed with great cheer by residents. Also, whilst Brambles was here, we had the local schoolchildren come to sing Christmas carols.
