Activities at Seaview House Care Home
Our Activities Coordinators are constantly striving to mentally and physically stimulate those we support by organising group and individual activities for anyone and everyone to participate in. There are exercise classes and a walking group, regular outings in the minibus to nearby places of interest including local concerts, as well as weekly visits from a PAT dog, and regular visits from musicians and entertainers, as well as church services which are held twice a month. We also host a weekly social event in which we encourage residents from the whole home to socialise together.
Activities are one of the most important aspects of a care home, so it is essential that our team are dedicated to ensuring that residents are entertained, and that life at Seaview is fun and active.

Life at Seaview House Care Home
Residents pay their respects
A group of residents representing Seaview House visited the Royal Memorial Garden at Wick riverside & placed a floral tribute and had a minutes silence in memory of Queen Elizabeth II.
Wallace Collection
Our homes had a fantastic time joining members of the Wallace Collection for an amazing sensory session.
During the live virtual experience, our residents explored one of the museum’s most beautiful Dutch flower paintings and learnt new drawing techniques.
We cannot wait to put our creative skills to a test and produce beautiful paintings of our own.
Everyone enjoyed the lovely talk, we all had lots of fun and it’s given us plenty of ideas.
Gala week
Residents from Seaview attended several outings and events on during Wick’s Gala Week. They attended the decorated float procession, children’s fancy dress parade, Elise Lyall Coffee afternoon and the Senior Treat in the assembly rooms where there was so much entertainment put on and teas and then they were so delighted meeting old friends.
Family Day
Families were all invited in for a cuppa with their family and what a lovely time was had by all! Some having four generations at one table and the smile on every ones faces says it all.
Residents had a ball!
Four footie fans & ex - players were so delighted with a trip to watch local football club Wick Academy play Keith FC AND WIN 1-0!! Residents enjoyed free hospitality, tickets, scarves & mugs! Everyone was so delighted and looked forward to the next home game.
