Activities at Stamford Bridge Beaumont Care Home

The activity team within our home spend a lot of time committing themselves to organising a range of activities for residents. This includes, pet therapy, trips out to local places of interest, visits from entertainers and musicians, bingo, one to one pamper time, weekly quizzes, coffee mornings, arts and crafts and baking. Activities are considered to be a crucial aspect of our home as residents look forward to upcoming events. As a result, it is essential that our team work together with dedication, to ensure residents are entertained and involved in as many activities as possible.

Michael Lythgoe

Activities Lead

I have worked in the care sector for 36 years, initially working for the NHS at Brandesburton Hospital as a care assistant. When the hospital closed I transferred to Townend Court and continued as a care assistant on the forensic ward for people with a learning disability. It was whilst working with the Occupational therapists at Townend that I discovered my passion for engaging the patients in activities of their choosing, I’m quite artistic and creative so it was an easy transition

I have many years’ experience working with the older generation and those who live with dementia, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and other diagnosis’.

I am really looking forward to bring both my experience and passion to my new role and to see the positive impact on our resident population.

Residents enjoy Betty's inspired afternoon tea

This week our Residents were treated to a Bettys Tearoom inspired afternoon tea,  they had tea in our china cups and enjoyed some delicious mouth-watering cakes and finger sandwiches especially prepared by the homes hospitality team.  Even our staff got into the spirit of the theme and a lovely afternoon was had by all as we shared stories of our visits to this iconic tea room.

Valentine's Day at Stamford

Love was in the air at Stamford Bridge Beaumont as we celebrated this special day with a Valentine’s themed afternoon tea.  During the afternoon we enjoyed listening to love songs, delicious home-made cakes especially prepared by the homes hospitality team.   During the course of the week residents also enjoyed various arts and crafts with a love theme which were displayed throughout the home for everyone to see.

Keeping residents connected

In December we had 2 visiting suites installed at our home and these have become invaluable to our residents and their family and friends who have been able to ensure relationships are maintained while still adhering to social distancing, today Richard was visited by his wife a daughter - I think the faces say it all.

Birthday celebrations

What a busy day we had yesterday, celebrating 2 of our residents turning 90! Residents enjoyed fizz, nibbles and games along with some cakes made by our catering team.   Happy birthday ladies!

Spring crafts

As the snow fell outside, residents showed their creative side with an arts and crafts session by creating floral pictures as they look forward to the signs of early spring as bulbs begin to appear in the homes garden.  Residents used form stamps, colour paper and everyone was delighted with the end results.

Eyes down for a game of bingo

It was ‘eyes down’ as residents enjoyed a socially distanced game of bingo which is featured regularly within the homes life enrichment programme.  Residents enjoyed getting involved with calling out the numbers and fondly remember evenings spent in the former bingo halls.  It was a fun-filled afternoon whilst enjoy a cup of tea and slice of homemade cake.
