Activities at Wheatlands 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 Wheatlands Care Home

Family Reunion

We had such a special day when families joined us in the garden for the first time in a long while – this was for our residents and families meeting. Everyone had a lovely time; the look on their faces was priceless.

Museum Visit

We had a lovely trip to Much Wenlock Museum. It was so interesting to find out about the history of our beautiful town coffee and cake was served in the beautiful church gardens.

Photography Day

Residents enjoyed a trip out in the minibus to take photos of our beautiful countryside. It poured with rain but they didn’t care. They enjoyed coffee and cake in the minibus!

Round the World

Residents enjoyed  around-the-world trip to Thailand. We started off with a gentle Thai exercise class, made paper flowers, spoke some Thai phrases and tasted some delicious fruit juices.

Trip to Local Allotment

Residents enjoyed a trip to our local allotment, where they looked at all the fruit, veg and flowers. We also came home with a big bag of fresh vegetables.

Sports Day

Residents had a great sports day at Wheatlands; we had an egg and spoon race, mini golf, beanbags, ring toss, balloon tennis and a very competitive nerf gun target practice.
