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.

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.
