Activities at Wimborne 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.
Zoe Freeman
I have been working in care since 2019 and love the industry. I came from working on cruise ships and running events and activities there which has set me up to be a successful activities coordinator in care. You will never see me without a smile on my face and always bring my fun and bubbly personality to my job. My favourite part of my job is making people cheerful and help make their wishes come true to show people that age is just a number and we can have fun no matter what!

Life at Wimborne Care Home
International Flower Day
Today was a International Flowers Day! Residents celebrated by making their own flower arrangements in five vases and then we displayed them all over the home for everyone to enjoy their colour and fragrance
Musician entertains us all!
Residents enjoyed a visit from the wonderfully talented singer Charlotte Haines who sang a set of musical songs, from The King and I, The Sound of Music, Carousel and many many more.
Residents absolutely loved her voice and were singing along with her throughout. Thank you Charlotte for coming to see us and we will see you again soon
PenPals!
Residents and the children from Megham Infant School have been collaborating together in a Pen Pal scheme, sending letters to each other. The residents loved the pictures received from the children at Christmas and we sent replies back this week to the children to thank them
Christmas Day!
We all enjoyed our Christmas Day, starting with opening our presents with Santa, followed by a lovely Christmas lunch, we congregated in the lounge for some sherry and minced pies whilst watching the Queens speech. We hope you enjoyed your day as much as we did!
Community Christmas carol concert
Residents went to visit the children at Megham Junior School to watch their community Christmas carol singing. We enjoyed listening to the children singing and dancing and also enjoyed some tea, coffee and mince pies. Thank you for having us, we can't wait to see you all next week for more carol singing when you come to see us at Wimborne Care Home.
Christmas Quiz Night!
This evening residents enjoyed a Wimborne Pub Christmas Quiz, we had our head maintenance, Gary hosting the quiz with his Santa's hat on. The residents enjoyed the evening and singing Christmas songs at the end
