Activities at Tennyson Wharf Care Home
Our activities team are great at building the activities programme around the likes and interests of the people we care for. Ensuring that our social events offer fun and adventure is part of the ethos of our home; it’s important that those we support can enjoy an active and social lifestyle. Of course, there will always be those who prefer peace and quiet, and in these instances, a cup of tea and a chat are always welcomed.

Life at Tennyson Wharf Care Home
Seaside Trip
We were unlucky enough to choose the only day that it was windy and raining to go to the beach, but that didn't stop residents from enjoying themselves!
Pets at Home
What a wonderful morning! Our weekly toddler group and parents, and our residents, were enthralled when Pets At Home visited with baby rabbits and Guinea pigs. There were lots of cuddles and smiles!
The Lincolnshire Show
The sun was shining at the Lincolnshire Show, where our lovely General Manager, Katie, presented the prizes for the 'Best in Class' of these woolly friends! The sheep were judged on their general health as well as size and build. Tennyson Wharf loves getting involved with events in the local community, and we like to take residents out for day trips as often as possible.
Queen's Birthday Preparations
Residents got creative and produced these decorations and scrumptious cakes in readiness for celebrating the Queen’s birthday.
Beauty by Rachael
Rachel comes into our purpose-built salon on a Saturday afternoon to provide beauty treatment services. She offers manicures, pedicures, facials, massages and ear candling – all at reasonable prices. Rachel’s services are not limited to just residents; family members, friends, and the wider general public are more than welcome too. Rachael can be contacted on 07591 620 035 for further information, or to make an appointment.
Royal Wedding Celebrations
Budding Opera singe, Alysha serenaded residents, visitors and members of our local WI in our beautiful Bronte Suite lounge. The party then moved into to our equally beautiful Bronte dining room for a wedding high tea fit for a princess, freshly prepared by our award winning Chef.
