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.

Life at The Wingfield Care Home
Supporting the Community with the Shoe Box Appeal
The Wingfield always like to support charities, whether its local or national ones. This year the Residents decided they wanted to support the Shoe Box appeal. So with the help of friends families and local community they set about raising money and also receiving gifts. The home raised £120 for the Charity as well as boxing up lots of toys and goodies for the children. Everyone really enjoyed being part of the project
Birthdays in the visiting suite
The homes newly installed visiting suite, means not only do residents get to spend time with their loved ones over the winter period. It means celebrations can happen now too. It was lovely to watch this family celebrating a special birthday.
Christmas Garden Entertainment
Residents and staff we treated to an afternoon of live entertainment. Everyone was safe inside and watching from the garden room and the windows. As the musicians from Wiltshire rural music played their favourite Christmas songs.
Giant Scrabble afternoon
The residents really enjoy puzzles and games. So what better fun than this giant Scrabble board. It means that everyone can enjoy it together and make an afternoon of it. Followed by afternoon tea by the fire.
Homemade Advent Calendars
The residents wanted something different and unique this year as their countdown to Christmas so they decided to get crafty and make their own. Simple, effective and very colourful. Each one has a little surprise inside too.
Thanksgiving Zoom Quiz
We were joined virtually for a really fun afternoon Zooming. We are embracing our new virtual world, and we are really enjoying it. We are lucky enough to have some volunteers that dedicate their time to spend with our residents. As they are unable to come in at the moment. They didn't want to miss out still spending time with them and what better way to do it. We cant wait for the next one.
