Activities at Wimborne Care Home

Our teams are trained to enrich the lives of residents through stimulating the mind, body and soul, and taking the time to learn about each person to ensure everyone receives support that adds enrichment to their life.

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

Senior Activity Coordinator

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!

Tenpin Bowling

Here at Wimborne our residents love nothing more than getting out and about on our mini bus trips. This week we have been to Chichester to have a fantastic time tenpin bowling! Alongside our Activity Team and residents we were joined by 3 of our fantastic volunteers that support Wimborne Care Home. Everyone had a fantastic time.

Happy Easter

All staff and residents here at Wimborne loved celebrating Easter weekend with lots of themed events from Easter bingo to egg nest cupcakes but most importantly everyone loved their Easter eggs donated from the fabulous Ferryboat Inn, thank you so much for these sweet treats!

Bunny Trail

At Wimborne Care Home on Hayling Island we have been busy partnering up with local businesses to bring the community an Easter Bunny Hunt. The task involves local children finding hidden bunnies around Hayling Island shops, the bunnies are hid in the windows of the highstreet - can you find them?

Easter Donation

Here at Wimborne Care Home on Hayling Island we have been busy acting like the Easter bunny!

We hope the eggs are thoroughly enjoyed and help raise funds towards the primary schools future sensory garden.
