Life at Wilsmere House Care Home
de Havilland Aircraft Museum
On a very sunny afternoon, some residents and relatives decided that they wanted to visit the de Havilland Mosquito Aircraft Museum.
Most residents were a bit put off by the name 'Mosquito', and said, "Who would want to see mosquitos?" However, one resident, who was an aircraft fanatic, stepped in and replied, "No, its not actually a mosquito, but a prototype which is made of wood and was used during World War 2. They were over the moon to see the aircraft, so much so that we have arranged to visit again.
Open Day
On June 2017, Wilsmere House threw open its doors and welcomed the community, local authories, and the CQC, who had the opportunity to come and witness life within our home. Residents decorated the hall and chose their theme, along with the food. Everyone had a fantastic time and we danced the afternoon away.
Buffet Luncheon
The General Manager at Wilsmere House invited all the care staff to a luncheon during Carers Week to show her appreciation for their hard work and dedication throughout the years.
The staff enjoyed a buffet prepared by the catering staff and there was a raffle where they all won prizes on the day.
