Activities at Wheatlands 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 Wheatlands Care Home
Armchair Latin Dancing
This month we all decided we would like to try something new as suggested in our residents meeting. So we have taken up armchair Latin dancing it’s a great way to keep fit and have some fun.
Bingo
Who doesn’t love an afternoon of bingo? Picture bingo as our dementia friendly alternative of the classic game. Eyes down!
Debbie comes to sing
The beautiful Debbie came to entertain us what better way to spend a Tuesday afternoon? There was lots of singing, dancing, smiles and laughter we all enjoyed it so much.
Church Visit
We visited our local church today for a new monthly ploughman’s lunch. It was so nice to take the residents out in the minibus again and everyone, including the staff had a great time connecting with the local community.
Lemmie visits
We had a lovely visit from our Activities coordinator’s dog, Lemmie. As you can see from his bib he rocks and the residents definitely thought so too.
Walking Club
In August we took our walking club down to the local town for a cup of tea and cake. We all had a lovely time and the weather stayed beautiful.
