The Limes is currently undergoing a programme of refurbishment to introduce our lifestyle themes.

The Limes is a care home that provides long-term residential, and respite, care for older people and people living with dementia.

Each of the two households has a living area with a lounge, dining area and kitchenette where people can make their own snacks and drinks if they choose to. Daily life revolves around the living areas where residents meet to socialise and join in with exercise classes and activities.

As part of our activity provision, WCS Care employs dedicated Community Musicians who deliver one-to-one or group music-based activities. And our Memory Maker minibus provides regular, local trips for residents, including those who need to use a wheelchair. We invite relatives to join our trips so families can make new memories together.

The conservatory, at the home's entrance, opens up into the garden which is maintained by staff and residents, and attracts local wildlife such as squirrels and muntjac deer.

The home also uses night-time acoustic monitoring to improve the health and wellbeing of the people living with us.

WCS Care offers the Relatives’ Gateway service for relatives with the necessary consent in place. This is an innovation that picks up most care and activities in real time, creating text from icons selected by staff. Loved ones and staff can also use the gateway to send pictures and messages, keeping everyone up-to-date anywhere in the world with an internet connection. You can sign into the gateway using the link at the top of the website.
