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

Happy 60th birthday to our General Manager, Pauline Hodgeson, who recently turned 60. Many happy returns from all at Lindum House.
Day Out at the Garden Centre
We visited the local local garden centre and enjoyed a tasty lunch there. It is mostly indoors and newly refurbished, so it was the perfect place to take the residents.
Memory Walk
Here at Lindum House, we did a Memory Walk over the Humber Bridge in aid of the Alzheimer's Society. Jacqui and Kelly got wet to the skin, but it was for a good cause.
Lifestyle Children
Here at Lindum house, we've had the pleasure of the Lifestyle Children coming in to help with the bingo sessions. They also helped with other activities, had tea and cake and played games with residents.
On the last week, the children told us they would like to donate some money that they had raised to buy us a fancy new bingo machine.
The residents were thrilled to bits and love playing bingo with the new machine; residents who cannot hear while are no able to see the bingo numbers because of this.
Barchy Goes to the Beach
Our mascot, Barchy Bear, went to Bridlington and enjoyed a day at the beach. Everyone who went along with him had a great time!
