Activities at Wilton Place Care Home
Activities are the cornerstone of a wholesome home experience, and our Activities Coordinators are always putting their creative minds to the test by organising new and exciting social events for residents to partake in. Of course, we take into account the likes and dislikes of those we support, so if someone doesn’t feel like trying something new, there will always be something on offer to reflect their personal interests. For the people who may just prefer some peace and quiet instead, we also offer one-to-one time that can be enjoyed with a nice cup of coffee or just a simple chat – whatever they desire.

Life at Wilton Place Care Home
Gardening Club
Our residents love to relax in our beautifully landscaped garden but they also love to muck in and help with our raised beds, bulb planting and veggie growing.
Come rain or shine they can be found enjoying the fresh air and swapping gardening tips.
Breakfast of Kings
We were delighted to host the Wilton Mens Shed for breakfast on Monday morning. It was an early start with a full English being the order of the day.
Head Chef was sizzling by 7.30am to create the breakfast fit for a king.
The home welcomes the shed gents every month for a slap up start to the day.
Handicraft in the Holidays
Did you know that our residents can take part in weekly handicraft sessions such as art, flower arranging, cookery, knitting, sewing clubs and art classes?
These sessions increase creativity and stimulate the development of new skills.
Energy Boosting Exercise
What’s not to love about exercise?
Our residents enjoy various ways to keep active from seated pilates, sports exercise classes, dancing, balloon tennis, skittles, darts, gardening and trips out.
Benefits include muscle-strengthening, improving balance, boosting self-esteem and mood and better sleep quality and energy levels.
Mothering Sunday
Families and Residents celebrated Mother's Day over our Head Chef's delicious homemade scones and cakes. Making memories and reminiscing, the Bistro was buzzing with chatter and energy.
Wilton Place Bistro Overrun with Beavers!
Intergenerational interactions provide a valuable platform for older adults to connect, learn, and thrive, ultimately promoting their health and well-being.

An uplifting evening of fun and giggles for all!
