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
National Tea Day
Residents enjoyed celebrating National Tea Day with a special themed Mad Hatters Tea Party. Families joined in virtually, which was lovely. There was homemade scones with fresh cream, fairy cakes, sandwiches, tea and prosecco. The afternoon was spent playing croquet, cards and doing arts and crafts.
Happy Hair
There were happy scenes, as hairdressers were finally allowed back into the home.
Just like the rest of the country, residents had been waiting patiently for months to get their hair styled, and so they were delighted to be able to book in for a long overdue cut and blow dry.
Minibus Trip
We all enjoyed a drive round the countryside to celebrate the Queen’s birthday. We stopped for cream tea and scones and enjoyed the beautiful views.
Around the World
We went around the world to Las Vegas; we had a great day of singing, dancing, quizzes, music, and we even went to the casino!
The Easter Bunny
The local school children were so excited when our Easter bunny passed by to deliver some eggs.
St Patrick's Day
We enjoyed lots of singing and dancing, plenty of Guinness and we also held a “looking for leprechauns” walk.
