Heatherton House & Wonderful Wishes

Heatherton House are committed to providing a warm and vibrant environment for their residents which extends beyond the care home's walls. They believe in the power of community and the positive impact it can have on the lives of their residents. Recently, Heatherton House had the privilege of partnering with the Wonderful Wishes charity, which focuses on supporting families from all backgrounds through a variety of activities and a strong support network. The result has been an extraordinary initiative.

Heatherton House opened its doors to Wonderful Wishes, offering the picturesque gardens as the perfect location for a range of community-based activities. These activities have provided an incredible opportunity for local children to engage with the residents, creating a beautiful bond that has brought smiles and laughter to all involved.

The excitement within Heatherton House was palpable as residents eagerly participated in these heart-warming activities. From art and craft sessions to storytelling circles and even gardening projects, residents have welcomed the children with open arms, creating cherished memories and fostering lasting friendships.

One of the most notable aspects of this initiative is how genuinely thrilled the residents at Heatherton House were to be able to be a part of such a wonderful endeavour. Their faces were a wonderous sight, lighting up as they interacted with the children. It's heartening to witness how these interactions have invigorated the residents.

This partnership with Wonderful Wishes exemplifies Heatherton house’s team’s dedication to enhancing the quality of life for their residents. Events like these reaffirm the importance of intergenerational relationships and the profound impact they can have on well-being.

At Heatherton House, the team spoke about how honoured they are to be part of this extraordinary community initiative with Wonderful Wishes. As the Community continue to witness the smiles and bonds that flourish between the residents and the children, they are reminded of the enduring value of community, compassion, and the incredible joy it brings to this luxury , person-centred care home.
