All sorts of people enjoy playing bingo, but especially older people it seems. Unfortunately many older people aren’t able to stay in their houses and enjoy the lives they used to do, and they sometimes have to go into nursing homes or old people’s homes. Well, just recently a fabulous nursing home called Ladymead won a Pride of Swindon Award for being such a fabulous establishment. Read on to find out more about them.
The workers at Ladymead organise all sorts of activities for the old folk who live there. One of the things they do is arrange bingo games, and the people in the home absolutely love it! Many of them used to play bingo when they were younger with their friends and family, so plenty of them already know how to play, and many of them really miss it. It’s so nice that they can once again play their beloved bingo games. Other activities at Ladymead include skittles and dominoes.
It’s a shame when people move into nursing homes if they have to give up many of the things they did before, but Ladymead has proved with their bingo games that older people can carry on doing many of the same things they did before. The circumstances may be different but the activity is the same. The Ladymead residents get just as much enjoyment out of their bingo games now as they did before, and the staff there truly deserve their Pride of Swindon Award.
