Natasha Chapman is Registered Manager at Beaufort Park.

Activities Are So Important |

An activities co-ordinator works with residents one-to-one, spending time with them in their own rooms, as well as organising group activities. Being part of the local community is important to us, so the people we care for are connected, not isolated. Four-legged and feathered friends are always welcome, too. We love it when visitors bring their pets in. We welcome all sorts of musical entertainers, including singers, ukulele-players and interactive musicians getting residents involved with percussion, and singalong leaders.
