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.

Garden Party

We had a wonderful afternoon on Saturday 29th July; we hosted our annual garden party and invited residents, loved ones, friends and people from the local community. The White Star band played for us and we had an ice cream van pay us a visit.

Everyone really enjoyed the entertainment and refreshments, and the weather was absolutely fantastic, which was an added bonus.

A massive thank you to everyone who helped the staff here at the Beaumont and who helped to make it a very enjoyable day, especially for residents. Also, a big thank you to everyone who supported us - and also to the band and the ice cream van!

Our Trip to Junior School

Our Trip to Junior School

We were lucky enough to get an invite to our local junior school in Stamford Bridge to watch the year 6 school play. They were performing Aladdin and it was an absolute pleasure to watch them; they did really well and managed to keep us all entertained. It was lovely to see how much residents got from this and we look forward to supporting the school again.

A massive thank you to Stamford Bridge School for inviting us and we wish the year 6 pupils good luck in secondary school.

Chairobics with Mark

Chairobics with Mark

We enjoyed a fantastic morning with Mark, who hosts an exercise session here at Stamford Bridge. We spent time doing exercise to music, which was really fun. Even though resident, David, had a poorly foot, he still wanted to get involved, so he asked if he could borrow the Activities Coordinator's foot to do the exercise, which she didn't mind at all.
