Person-Centred Residential and Dementia Care in Wimbledon
Situated in the leafy outskirts of the district, our Wimbledon Common Care Home is just a short drive from the All England Club – host of the world-famous Wimbledon tennis championship. It’s here we provide our residents with the right levels of support, to the highest standards. Here, at Avery, we tailor care plans to meet the needs of the care recipient.
We offer a variety of care types at our care home in Wimbledon – all provided by our qualified and compassionate care team. The support we can provide includes residential care, where we support residents with day-to-day activities, nursing care, for residents with longer-term conditions, and respite care, which allows residents to continue to receive the care they need on a short-term basis.
Our team also provides specialist dementia care. We’re proud to have pioneered a number of innovative approaches to supporting people affected by dementia. These approaches include our ReConnect programme, where we use life story work to understand our residents, their life experiences and how we can positively support them, and Cutlery-Free Dining, which makes mealtimes inclusive.
We believe it’s important for our residents to feel comfortable, which is why we’ve created a setting that’s lively and luxurious – no two days are ever the same at Wimbledon Common Care Home. Our studio apartments are light and airy, with all the mobility and safety features you or your loved one might need – including en-suite wet rooms.
Away from the apartments, our Wimbledon care home also boasts a fully stocked café, a cinema equipped with plush seating, surround sound and a large screen, a contemporary restaurant, serving seasonal dishes prepared by professional chefs, and a therapy room, where residents can receive physiotherapy and other treatments in a quiet environment.

We have a dedicated activities team organised by an activities manager. With extensive weekly activity calendars, there is always plenty to choose from, whatever a resident’s mobility level. Activities inside our homes include ballroom dancing, board games, guest musicians and speakers and of course our ever-popular bridge tournaments. We also organise regular outings, from theatre and cinema trips to nature walks, shopping trips and church services. Many of our homes also have gardening areas and potting sheds, where green-fingered residents can tend their own plot. The wellbeing of our residents is always our main concern, and Signature life is designed to provide a full spectrum of physical, mental and emotional wellbeing. Regular exercise classes for all abilities, physiotherapy treatments in our specialist therapy rooms, and country trips are just some of the activities by which Signature maintains physical wellbeing. Stimulating activities such as crossword challenges, quiz nights and foreign language classes offer a great range of options for mental wellbeing. |
