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.
Zoe Grindley
Hello My name is Zoe, I have been in the life enrichment team at Southgate Beaumont since December 2021.
I am originally from Liverpool and moved to London in 1997 after being accepted at Mountview Theatre school. After graduating I worked as an actress and accomplished voiceover artist for many years. I also have a vast amount customer service experience, working in many West End Theatres, as Cabin crew for Virgin Atlantic and at Claridges hotel in Mayfair.
Zoe has a passion for making strong connections with people and creating lasting memorable experiences.
My role here at Southgate Beaumont is to ensure our residents lives are packed full of enriching and interesting activity. We provide a wide range of both home led and community led activity for all residents as well as personalised and individual hobby and interest focused events. Our programme ranges from cocktail making, to art history talks, exercise sessions as well as fine dining dinner parties catered for by our chefs
I have made lots of lovely new friends at Southgate Beaumont care home and look forward to making many more.

Life at Southgate Beaumont Care Community
Local History Talk with U3A at Southgate Beaumont.
A wonderful trip down memory lane and a informative insight into what Southgate and the surrounding areas looked like many years ago.
It was also so fascinating to see what our beautiful home looked like all the way back in 1883.
With interesting slides and lots of fun facts it was a great way to spend the afternoon.
Thank you to our local friend Colin from U3A for this lovely talk.
A Lively Afternoon
A wonderful afternoon was had by all when Talia and her accordion came for a visit.
Talia is full of fun with a beautiful voice and vivacious personality. She really brought her accordion to life playing a huge mixture of classics and modern hits.
Residents were up dancing and singing and it was so special to see everyone having such a great time.
Music connects us all and seeing our residents respond so well makes it such a joy to watch.
We all said how uplifted we felt and we are now looking forward to her next visit.
Marjorie in the garden
Marjorie just loves being out in our beautiful grounds and she was so grateful when we had a lovely sit in the garden in the sunshine so she could admire all the beautiful flowers.
After a recent fall Marjorie can't go too far so it makes such a difference to her knowing that she can enjoy the garden whenever she wants too.
Marjorie loves to chat and she was full of stories as we sat together.
She was so delighted and happy and just kept saying Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.
A lovely trip out to Grovelands park
Residents had a glorious morning at Grovelands park and it was so beneficial to be outside in nature and walk in the sunshine.
On this occasion a number of residents family members joined us at the park so we all had such a lovely time, chatting together and getting to know each other's families.
No trip to the park would be complete without a trip to the café so we all enjoyed a delicious ice cream in the sunshine.
Everyone said how happy the trip had made them and what a lift it had given to each and every one of us.
It was also so important and special to see loved ones continuing to make precious memory's with their families.
Tea with a view.
We are so lucky to have such lovely grounds here in at Southgate Beaumont and we like to take every opportunity to sit out in the sun, have a cuppa and take time to chat.
With lots of lovely flowers to enjoy, it’s certainly one of the residents favourite ways to spend their day. Tea with a view.
