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.

Jekaterina says she has always worked nights and really loves her job, and fully expects to be here for her 20 year award as well.

The City of Culture
We visited the Ferens Art Gallery in Hull for the Turner Prize Showing.
We looked at many different exhibitions and enjoyed our lunch in the gallery’s very own café overlooking the Old Princes Dock.
We also viewed the behind the scenes of how the Hull City people participated in the Sea of Blue Showcase – very interesting!
A Paper and a Chat
Here at Lindum House we enjoy socializing with each other, reading the local newspapers and then reminiscing.
Macmillan Coffee Afternoon
Here at Lindum House, we held a cake competition to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support, where we had a selection of cakes and treats for residents to taste. The afternoon was a great success and we all enjoyed tasting the lovely cakes.
Ukulele Showcase
Here at Lindum House, we welcomed the Beverley Strummers to entertain us with their lovely singing and ukulele playing. Residents really enjoyed the showcase and were happily singing along.
