Our lounge areas are welcoming spaces where residents can relax, chat, reflect or join in with the rhythm of daily life. Whether someone is looking for quiet time with a game or book or a sociable setting to enjoy a group activity, our lounges offer comfort, flexibility and the feeling of home.
Our centre includes a variety of lounge areas to suit different needs and preferences. The main lounge is a bright, sociable space where many of our daily activities take place. It’s a hub of gentle activity where residents can join in as much or as little as they like.
For those who prefer a quieter setting, our Coffee Corner lounge offers a peaceful spot to enjoy a warm drink, read the paper, or spend time with visiting family. It’s also a space where residents can use digital devices, enjoy one-to-one time with carers, or simply rest in a calm environment. All lounges are fully accessible, comfortably furnished and carefully laid out to help residents feel safe and settled.
Having access to different types of spaces is an important part of feeling at home. For residents living with neurological conditions or recovering from injury, being able to choose where and how they spend their time helps maintain a sense of independence and control. It also supports emotional wellbeing by offering balance – whether through quiet moments or meaningful social interaction.
At Gilmerton, our lounges are an extension of each resident’s living space. Whether it’s a familiar daily routine or a spontaneous moment of connection, we aim to provide comfort and flexibility in a way that feels natural and respectful. There’s always somewhere warm and welcoming to go.
All our lounges are fully accessible, with space for wheelchairs and mobility aids. Seating is arranged to allow easy movement and a safe, comfortable environment.
Yes. Residents can choose from a range of spaces depending on their mood or preference – from the sociable main lounge to quieter areas like the Coffee Corner.
Many of our group activities take place in the main lounge, including games, music sessions, films and social events. The space is set up to be flexible, so it can be used for both organised activities and relaxed, everyday socialising.
