Who doesn’t enjoy a bit of friendly competition? 🎈

Residents recently enjoyed a lively session of balloon tennis filled with laughter and plenty of movement. Activities like this are a simple yet effective way to use everyday items that support coordination and physical activity while also boosting activity and wellbeing levels.

It was great to see everyone joining in, encouraging each other and creating a lovely buzz around the home!

Focus and fun at The Beeches 🎨

What a wonderfully colourful and focused morning we've had!

Our residents were deep in concentration with a brilliant cognitive and dexterity game. The challenge was to look at a pattern card and replicate it by sorting these bright, colourful eggs into the cartons.

It was so lovely to see everyone engaged, testing their hand-eye coordination and problem-solving skills. Activities like this are not only a bit of fun but also fantastic for keeping our minds active and our hands busy.

Just look at that concentration (and the wonderful smiles)! 😊

This week, residents participated in Remembrance Day-themed quizzes, which led to many deep and meaningful conversations and love, loss and grief.

We will remember them ❤️

What beats some friendly competition?

It was the best concentration faces when some residents enjoyed a competitive game of dominoes! We love to support residents in continuing to play games as it helps maintain cognitive health and is a great mood booster.

Plus, a classic game is a wonderful way to spend an afternoon!

Well played, ladies! 👏🏼

This Remembrance Sunday, we're honouring the brave men and women who served and sacrificed for our freedom. Our residents have been sharing their poignant memories and stories, reminding us of the profound impact of those who gave so much. We stand together, in solemn remembrance, ensuring their legacy lives on.

Lest We Forget. 🌹

This week, residents at The Beeches have been coming together to create heartfelt tributes for Remembrance Day. ❤️

Through thoughtful arts and crafts, we've been preparing our home to pay its respects. From colouring beautiful poppy wreaths to creating a special cross for our garden, each piece was made with care and remembrance in mind.

It is our privilege to honour the service and sacrifice of all who have come before us.

Happy birthday Tom, we hope you had the most wonderful day. 🥳

(Doesn't that cake look incredible?! 🎂)

We recently got wrapped up with some of our residents and went to a coffee morning at the local chapel. ☕️

We're so lucky to live in a lovely and welcoming place where residents can socialise safely and comfortably with other members of the community 💙

The spirit of play is alive and well at The Beeches!

Take a peek at our residents enjoying a unique game we put together. With two bottles serving as posts and a face mask ingeniously transformed into a net, our "mask ball" game was a huge hit! It's designed to be fun, stimulate gentle movement, and encourage friendly competition from the comfort of their chairs.

From precise serves to triumphant catches, every resident brought their best game and, more importantly, their brightest smiles. It’s these simple, joyful interactions that make our care home a wonderful place to live. 🏐
