Activities at Southgate Beaumont Care Community
Our activities team are great at building the activities programme around the likes and interests of the people we care for. Ensuring that our social events offer fun and adventure is part of the ethos of our home; it’s important that those we support can enjoy an active and social lifestyle. Of course, there will always be those who prefer peace and quiet, and in these instances, a cup of tea and a chat are always welcomed.

Life at Southgate Beaumont Care Community
Carers Week
Southgate Beaumont care home in Southgate held a day of celebrations to thank care staff at the home, who make a real difference to the lives of those in their care.
Staff were treated to an afternoon tea and a delicious cake prepared by the Head Chef and his team. The General Manager, Beatrice Godfrey handed out cards of appreciation from the residents and letters of thanks from the Barchester CEO and the Managing Director for the Southern Region. Staff also gave a call to family members who have been unable to visit due to lock down, but who also give so much support to their loved ones and carers in the home.
Beatrice Godfrey General Manager said: “I am very proud of the carers at Southgate Beaumont. In light of the current situation our carers have continued to work tirelessly to provide high quality, personalised care to the people living in our homes, and often go above and beyond the call of duty, which has a huge impact on people’s lives. They offer friendship and comfort to residents and their relatives, during what can be a very emotional time. We appreciate the work they do all year round, and especially in these unprecedented times”.
