Activities at Reigate Beaumont Care Home

Our specialist activities staff are committed to organising and delivering a fun mix of activities and events chosen by the residents here at Reigate Beaumont. We work closely with the local community who get involved in all kinds of activities within the home. We enjoy all kinds of events which could be anything from trips out to local places of interest in our minibus or visits from entertainers and musicians, spending time in our beautiful gardens, or providing great activities for the mind body and soul. We liaise with local churches and regularly hold multi-congregational services at the home.

It is important to us that each individual who we support can get as much from these as possible, so we try our best to arrange activities that reflect their interests and capabilities, and encourage them to participate in any way they can. We also encourage relatives to join with activities and invite them to our regular events. We also have a variety of volunteers who really enjoy spending time within the home too.

Activities Coordinator

Each resident is unique and as an Activity Coordinator, I aim to create meaningful activities whereby residents can feel at home. From quizzes to games, stretch classes to flower arranging, reminiscing to enjoying our beautiful gardens. From musicians to Namaste sessions, outings, intergenerational and community involvement – a balanced activity program of body, mind and soul allows each resident to feel as if they have purpose and meaning in their lives. As well as sitting and having meaningful one to one engaged conversation or holding your loved ones hand – can allow a resident to feel that Reigate Beaumont is their home. With a background as a Healthcare Assistant, we are taught to provide person centred care. This has helped me to provide person centred activities.

Residents Participate in Food Preparation Activities

Phyllis, a resident at the home, helped with food preparations activity. The residents really do love to lend their hands to good use as it gives them a sense of achievement and satisfaction.

Valentine's Meal

One of the residents and his wife enjoyed a special Valentine’s lunch here at Reigate Beaumont. It was a lovely opportunity for couples to dine together on a delicious menu, put together especially for this occasion by our head chef and set up in a separate dining room.

Bingo Night

Resident Tony, being in charge of our new Friday activity – Bingo – it has proven to be very popular with our residents and it’s fantastic to be able to get them involved in leading an activity.
