At Wheathills House, We offer a diverse selection of activities designed to keep residents engaged, active, and socially connected. Our activities program caters to a wide variety of interests, ensuring that there is something enjoyable and meaningful for everyone.
For residents who enjoy games, we host daily and weekly sessions featuring favourites like Bagatelle, Hangman, and regular Bingo. Card games, such as Newmarket, are also a big hit, providing a fun way for residents to interact and challenge each other.
Traditional games like Dominoes, Bean Bag Toss, Quoits, and floor-size Snakes and Ladders bring a sense of nostalgia and fun, while balloon tennis and chair exercises offer a gentle yet engaging way to stay physically active.
We even have sensory-based games like "What’s in the Box," where residents can feel objects and guess what they are, stimulating memory and senses in a delightful way.
For those who enjoy creative pursuits, Wheathills House has dedicated sessions for crafts such as knitting, crochet, painting, and colouring. Flower arranging is another popular choice, allowing residents to explore their creativity while making beautiful displays for the home.
Baking activities bring people together in the kitchen, filling the air with wonderful scents and giving everyone a chance to try out new recipes and share tasty treats with friends.
Our activity schedule also incorporates peaceful and reflective time, such as weekly Communion services, and regular bird-spotting sessions for those who love nature and enjoy watching local wildlife. Residents can also look forward to monthly visits to a local coffee shop for lunch, allowing them to enjoy a change of scenery and connect with the community outside the home.
These activities not only support the physical and mental well-being of our residents but also foster a warm, community-focused environment where everyone feels valued and connected.
At Wheathills House, we are committed to creating days filled with laughter, relaxation, and purpose for each member of our community.
