Life at Wimbledon Beaumont Care Community
Horsing Around
What better what to spend an afternoon than to visit our good friends at Wimbledon Village Stables.
Earlier this year several of our horse friends and their riders, made the visit to Wimbledon Beaumont to introduce themselves to our residents and staff. It was a great afternoon for all. One of our new residents said she wished she had seen the horses so we arranged for her to pop along to Wimbledon Village stables and see the horses on their 'own turf'.
We all had a great time.
The wonderful Wimbledon Riding Stables believe they are the oldest recorded riding stables in England and have been mentioned in records dated back to 1236/37. The current site is based behind the Dog and Fox in the high street.
KnitandKnatter - ChitandChatter
Our knit and natter group prepared a fabulous blanket for our Lady Mayor when she visited our home earlier this month.
The banter was in full flow whilst our some of our residents knitted and joined squares together for the Mayor. She loved it and wore it round her shoulders for her visit, which was surprising because it was a hot day.
Thanks to all involded for creating the 'banter blanket'.
Fruity Days
Here at Wimbledon Beaumont we know and understand the benefits to our health of having a mixed fresh diet where possible.
Often as well as afternoon tea and cake, we introduce a fresh fruit platter made by the resident's earlier that day. As well as being good for us, its delicious.
Three Fabulous Retired Nurses
Here at Wimbledon Beaumont Care Community we have many wonderful Residents that have had incredible and much valued careers. None more so than the retired Nurses that have chosen to live with us here at Wimbledon Beaumont Care Community.
A room with a View
This fabulous view over Wimbledon and London is from Jeans, Assisted Living Apartment at Wimbledon Beaumont Care Community
This view is amazing at all times of the day but extra special as the sun goes down.
Making Baking
Earlier this week, some of our residents chose to attend our popular baking class and created this delicious sponge cake.
Baking class was a great opportunity to get together and discus popular recipes of yester-year.
One of our residents recalled how her family each contributed to the family Christmas cake by joining together and pooling their rations. Another residents discussed how she made a 'saucepan' cake, something that we are going to attempt in our next baking session.
A good time was had by all.
