Activities at Prestbury Beaumont Care Community

Our home is always full of life, and we can thank our wonderful Activities Coordinators for this. Dedication to creating a unique and interesting activities programme is what sets us apart from other homes. We always take into consideration that some people would prefer to pursue their own interests, which is why our team strive to incorporative activities that cater to a wide range of tastes and hobbies. Our trips out are always fun and exciting as well, and residents are guaranteed to return with stories to tell their loved ones!

Little Visitors

Little Visitors

Prestbury Beaumont has recently teamed up with pre-school children from the Kings Preparatory School in Macclesfield.

Studies, alongside the recently acclaimed Channel 4 television programme, show that having young children interacting with older people makes everyone feel a little happier.

We are hopeful this intergenerational relationship will continue to flourish throughout 2019.

Here at Prestbury Beaumont, we welcome several animals on World Animal Day. Some were cuddly... others not so much. This sand lizard enjoyed all of the attention.
