Activities at Wilton Place Care Home

As 2025 drew to a close at Wilton Place care home, residents, families, friends and staff joined together in their Bistro to celebrate.

They all gathered and raised a glass of fizz and enjoyed some delicious nibbles to see off 2025 and welcome in the New Year with some testing quiz questions.

Wilton Place was able to welcome some new temporary respite residents, a service that is available all year round which enables families to take a break in the knowledge that their loved ones are in good hands. They were all made welcome and a wonderful time was had by all!

We all enjoyed some lovely Christmas carols sung by the children, they also visited some of our residents in their rooms who really appreciated the festive singing.        

Starting the New Year on a positive note with our first exercise class.

The fabulous Wilton Place bakers have been very busy making delicious biscuits, which, of course, received a positive taste test and didn’t last long; even the staff got to try some. 

Here at Wilton Place we have regular baking sessions, some include bread making and even recently made some Christmas cake.   

The festive season at Wilton Place care home in Wilton was marked by a delightful Christmas Fayre that brought together residents, staff, relatives, and the local community members. This joyful event not only celebrated the beginning of the Christmas festivities, it also strengthened bonds throughout the community while supporting a charitable cause, Salisbury Hospice Charity.

Visitors to the Fayre enjoyed a vibrant array of stalls, manned by the home’s staff and enthusiastic local vendors. There was something for everyone—from exquisitely crafted Christmas cakes and a lively bottle tombola to an assortment of handmade crafts and fascinating collectables. The variety and quality of items on offer reflected the care and effort invested by all those involved.  

Our residents loved our Christmas quizz and fizz evening so much they requested we do it again for New Years Eve.

Happy New Year from all at Wilton Place!
