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
Happy St. Patrick's Day
Happy St. Patrick’s Day from all of us here at Wimborne! We started our day off with morning Karaoke and had a blast! Followed by a traditional Irish stew for lunch, we then tested our knowledge on all things Irish with our St Paddy’s Day Quiz! Overall a fantastic day!
Our PAT Dog Rufus is Top Dog at Crufts!
Wimborne celebrated our furry friend Rufus the PAT dog as he came FIRST in his category at The Crufts Dog Show! We are so proud of him and this achievement as it was his first time there! In our residents opinion, he is always NUMBER ONE!
Happy Anniversary!
We had a beautiful celebration this month with Margaret and John’s 70th wedding anniversary! What an amazing milestone of love! They celebrated with a romantic lunch, a very special card from The King and of course, a lovely anniversary cake from our talented kitchen team! We wish them many more happy years together!
Double birthday celebrations!
Wimborne celebrated a double whammy of birthdays this month with the wonderful John and Marjorie! They were thrilled with their cards and the delicious Victoria Sponge made by our talented kitchen team! We had a great time celebrating them and we hope they had fabulous birthdays!
Enjoying the Sunshine with furry friends
We took advantage of the first lovely sunshine of the year and ventured into our lovely garden to soak up the sun! And our wonderful furry friend Rufus decided to join us too, giving our residents the chance to walk him around the garden for some fresh air and exercise! Our residents can’t wait for even sunnier days!
Love is in the air at Wimborne
We celebrated Valentine’s Day the only way we know how, with an afternoon of belting out our favourite love songs and indulging in some wonderful chocolate heart cookie decorating (although we much preferred the eating part). Wimborne had a lovely day celebrating Love!
