Activities at Windmill Manor 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.

Life at Windmill Manor Care Home
The Ice Bucket Challange
We did it!
Staff at Windmill Manor care home, bravely face the Alzheimer's 'Ice Bucket Challenge' to raise precious funds for the Alzheimer's Society.
We were all in agreement it is a great cause to support, however we are looking for a slightly warmer and less messy fund raiser for our next fundraising activity.
