Landscaped Gardens

Our landscaped garden is a peaceful outside space that residents have access to all year round. Featuring dedicated sections including a gardening area, sensory space, children’s play area, spaces for leisurely strolls, areas to sit and relax and even enjoy meals, we have created a garden that is tailored entirely to our residents, allowing them to use it in any way they wish.

Spending time outdoors comes with a wealth of benefits; a space to exercise improves mental and physical health, a boost of vitamin D helps physical strength, and where residents have the opportunity to socialise also improves and strengthens bonds with loved ones, staff and other residents.

Keeping Life Interesting at Woodlands

When the weather permits, we thoroughly enjoy hosting parties and events for special occasions. This gives our residents the chance to invite their loved ones into the home, to soak up the vitamin D from the sun and reap the rewards that the summer air brings. As well as fetes and other events, our Events & Wellbeing Coordinator designs a programme that can be held both in and outdoors. With comfortable furniture and a safe, accessible patio area, our all-year-round outdoor area can utilised in a variety of ways.

Our Landscaped Gardens Facilities

As part of our Events & Wellbeing Programme, Woodlands Care Home offers gardening activities for our green-fingered residents. We plant a variety of flowers and greenery, adding our own personal touch to the landscape. Additionally, we have recently added more raised planters and herbs, making it easier for residents to engage in gardening.

We also feature a children’s play area for residents’ grandchildren to enjoy during their visits. Our little outdoor sensory space includes a seating area where residents and their loved ones can sit together, surrounded by the soothing scents of herbs and plants. The sensory area offers various tactile experiences with shells, feathers, stones, hanging plants and green foliage, as well as auditory delights like wind chimes, windmills and birdsong.

Landscaped Gardens FAQs

We understand the importance of incorporating outdoor activities for our residents’ overall well-being. Stepping outside to breathe in fresh air, engage in outdoor activities, and connect with nature should be regularly achieved. The outdoors provides numerous mental and physical benefits, including stress and anxiety reduction, improved mood, enhanced cardiovascular health, balance and muscle strength.

We organise a variety of outdoor activities at Woodlands Care Home, including exercise sessions, gardening, lawn games and more. When the weather allows, residents have the opportunity to dine in the garden and enjoy live entertainment outdoors.

The gardens at Woodlands Care Home are accessible to all, featuring wheelchair-accessible paths and comfortable seated furniture. The private garden is secure with fencing and gates, ensuring residents stay within the garden boundaries.
