Activities at The Wingfield Care Home
Here at The Wingfield our activities team provide a varied and interesting range of activities for all residents. We are registered with the National Activity Providers Association (NAPA) and we take pride in delivering activities that will enhance residents lives and bring happiness and a sense of purpose. Our cooking activities are very popular, as well as the regular book clubs, coffee mornings, skittle matches and bus trips. We provide one to one support for those who are unable to attend activities and we have tea dances, musicians, quizzes, music and movement, as well as our giant scrabble board! But most importantly we have fun! Relatives are always welcome and there is always much laughter and smiling faces during our activities. We take pride in what we do and we continually strive to enhance residents lives through meaningful activity.

Life at The Wingfield Care Home
Emergency Services Visit
Paul and Jamie from South Western Ambulance NHS Foundation Trust were called out one morning in the area, so we stocked up with coffee and cake for them to take on the road with them.
Live Entertainment
We recently had the pleasure of welcoming musician, David moss, into the home – and residents loved him!
We Love to Dance!
Easter Bonnet Fun
On Easter Sunday, residents enjoyed decorating Easter bonnets and painting Easter eggs, whilst listening to traditional Easter hymns and, of course, playing a few group games!
15 Years at The Wingfield
Registered Nurse, Gayla Guncheva, received a prestigious 15 Year Service Award in celebration of working at Barchester Healthcare for 15 years.
Gayla, now Head of Unit, started at Barchester in March 2003, and has worked with residents and their relatives to ensure that their needs have been met over the years. Gayla is also a Dementia Friends Champion who has supported the home and the local community in becoming a Dementia Friend.
Crufts Creations
To celebrate our much-loved furry friends, we began work on some pop art dog creations using bright colours to design pictures, all of which will be added to a collage.
