Life at Wilsmere House Care Home
Independence Day
Staff and residents at Wilsmere House got the flags out and celebrated American Independence Day in style by hosting a ranch inspired party with line dancing and cowboy hats on the 4th July.
Many residents have visited America and some have family living there so American Independence Day was a great excuse to reminisce about previous trips and go on virtual tours to favourite places such as New York, the Grand Canyon and San Francisco. Residents enjoyed movies from the Golden Age of Hollywood as well as dancing to playlists including American greats such as Buddy Holly, Judy Garland and Frank Sinatra.
World Chocolate Day
Residents and staff at Wilsmere House celebrated World Chocolate Day recently by holding a baking session in the afternoon. As you can see, the outcome of the baking afternoon was a real success! Residents later enjoyed them with a cup of tea.
