01 / DISCOVER WHAT'S HAPPENING

Different interests.
One shared community.

Some people visit us for a favourite activity. Others come to meet neighbours, attend a local meeting or learn something new.

Whatever brings you to Wheatley House, we aim to offer a friendly community setting where you can enjoy good company and become more involved in local life.

Our programme may change during the year, so please contact us for current dates, participation arrangements and any charges before attending.

BINGO & SOCIAL ACTIVITIES

Enjoy a familiar favourite in good company.

Bingo brings people together for an enjoyable shared experience. It is about much more than the game: a chance to see familiar faces, exchange news and make new connections.

We value opportunities that encourage residents to meet others and maintain friendships. Whether you have been playing for years or want to find out what happens at a session, we welcome your enquiry.

SOCIAL EVENINGS & GATHERINGS

Make time for a friendly conversation.

Community connections grow through the simple act of spending time together. Our social gatherings provide opportunities to catch up with neighbours, get to know people and enjoy a relaxed atmosphere.

We particularly value the role these activities can play in helping people who may feel isolated find companionship and a sense of belonging.

COMMUNITY MEETINGS & LOCAL GROUPS

A shared space for local ideas.

We provide practical space for organisations, committees and community groups to meet. These gatherings give people somewhere to share information, plan projects and work together on matters that affect local life.

We welcome enquiries from groups who need a convenient place for discussions, presentations or organised meetings.
