A MONTHLY gentlemen’s club is helping care home residents in Wilton bond.

Gentlemen at Wilton Place care home relax in the lounge with a cold beer or a glass of wine – with plenty of snacks – as they discuss a range of topics which include cars, sports, politics, current affairs and much more.

Gentlemen’s club member Richard said: “I have been coming to the gentlemen’s club since I moved into Wilton Place and it’s a good opportunity to meet like-minded individuals.”

The care home says enriching the lives of their residents is a key aspect of life at Wilton Place and the gentlemen’s club is just one of the many activities they provide.

They say they support residents with their previous and current hobbies as well as encouraging them to try something new.

Antoinette Roberts, the general manager at Wilton Place Care Home, said: “As our Wilton Place family grows it makes me so happy to see our gentlemen embrace each other’s company and of course enjoy their drinks and snacks, while engaging in deep conversations.”
