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
Friendship Day
Here at Lindum, we celebrated Friendship Day in memory of our dear friend, Marie, who was a former resident. She was a lovely lady and was friendly with everyone who lived at the home. The residents made friendship bracelets and we also planted some forget-me-nots in her memory that her family gave to us. It's so nice to have friends, and here at Lindum, we are all friends together.
63rd Wedding Anniversary
Two residents at Lindum House celebrated their 63rd wedding anniversary.
Mr. & Mrs. Brooks went to a local garden centre to celebrate and were joined by their son and daughter-in-law. They had a lovely meal and then a walk around the centre. It was so nice to see them enjoying their anniversary out together.
Garden Centre Trip
We all took a trip to the garden centre in Sigglethorne. We had lunch in the lovely outdoor restaurant, which the residents really enjoyed.
Then we walked around the centre looking at all the beautiful plants, flowers and ornaments.
The residents had a fantastic day and loved being out in the fresh air. The weather didn't let us down either.
Beside the Seaside
Residents had some fish & chips and a cup of tea on the seafront. Then we had a walk along the waterfront; it was lovely to feel the fresh sea air!
Jacqui and Kelly Get Pretty Muddy
This is Jacqui and Kelly after they finished their Pretty Muddy run on June 25th at York Race Course. The duo raised £500 for cancer - well done girls!
All the Ones
Resident, Barbara, enjoyed a fun game of bingo here at Lindum House.
