Activities at Oxford Beaumont Care Community
Our Activities Coordinators are committed to organising a mix of activities and events that cater to all tastes, which includes minibus outings to nearby places of interest and visits from animal trusts, local school choirs, musicians and entertainers. We also undertake one-to-one activities for residents who are unable to participate in group sessions, and encourage loved ones to join in whenever they can.

Life at Oxford Beaumont Care Community
Christmas Cake Competition
This week at Oxford Beaumont, residents and staff have combined cookery skills and knowledge to stir up the perfect Christmas cake!
We have had lots of laughs and enjoyment sharing top tips and stories. Residents happily reminisced over how the cake was cooked up in their own homes and all their Christmas traditions.
Christmas Concert
Yesterday Oxford Beaumont were certainly getting into the Christmas spirit by being treated to wonderful live entertainment from Opera Anywhere!
Residents had a fun filled afternoon singing along to old Christmas favourites whilst sipping a glass of wine.
Christmas at Blenheim Palace
We had the pleasure of joining several of our sister Oxfordshire based homes at Blenheim Palace on 8th December 2021. Our residents and staff were treated to a wonderful Christmas tour around the palace and gardens.
We had a walked through the beautifully decorated palace rooms with the story of the Nutcracker, every room was so magical, sparkling and Christmassy.
Afterwards we had a delicious chocolate log cake and hot drinks provided by Blenheim Palace.
Thank you to #blenheimpalace for a lovely event enjoyed by everyone.
Christmas at Notcutts Garden Centre
This morning we had a fun festive outing to Notcutts Garden Centre
Our residents had a lovely time admiring all the Christmas displays and chatting over hot tea and coffee in the cafe! It was wonderful to experience a change of scenery and getting fresh air but we were pleased to get back to Oxford Beaumont for a nice, relaxing lunch awaiting our arrival!
St Gregs Christmas Stall
We have had a very busy and merry afternoon selling handmade Christmas crafts at our stall, eating mince pies and entering raffle draws at the local school fete.
All our hard work certainly paid off and all donations made will be going to Alzheimer’s Society
Elf Day at Oxford Beaumont
Today staff and residents have been channeling their inner s-elf!
We enjoyed dressing up and were busy finalising crafts and gifts in the workshop for tomorrows stall at St. Gregory’s school!
Of course the day wasn’t just about fancy dress and having fun (although we certainly had plenty of that!) but was also about raising awareness and funds for an amazing charity, Alzheimer’s Society.
