Elvis Singalong
Residents at Derham house had a wonderful singalong with Ian, AKA Elvis! The Home was filled with music, smiles & plenty of dancing.
School nativity
West Oak Residents and Staff had a joyful afternoon visiting their local Infant School.
Walter Infants invited us over to their lovely school for this year’s Nativity Play. From the moment we left West Oak and walked over to the school, the happiness and smiling faces of our residents were just wonderful.
Walter Infant school welcomed us all and the children’s performances throughout with their singing voices were just outstanding.
On returning back to our home, the residents enjoyed a nice hot cup of tea with a slice of home-made cake, and you can imagine the topic of conversation was all about the wonderful children and their Nativity Play.
Arty and Crafty
At Alice Grange we know that being able to continue lifelong hobbies or interests is a key part of our resident's identities, and we make every effort to encourage and support each resident to be able to do so.
Our Lifestyle enrichment team hold regular art and craft classes for the Residents who love to create designs and paint artwork.
At Alice Grange we support our residents to continue with their favourite hobbies, and encourage them to share and teach others about these too.
Fun Golf Afternoon
The residents of the home enjoyed a fun afternoon of golf in our Bistro area. We think Tiger Woods would be impressed by some of their putting skills. We will be holding more sporting themed events in 2026 as this has been very popular among residents , guests and the staff.
Disco Dancing with Birthday Girl
We have had so much fun dancing the afternoon away!
Joy and laughter filled the room as we also celebrated one of our lovely ladies birthdays; Happy Birthday, Muriel.
We are proud to offer this event on a monthly basis and welcome anyone to come along and boogie with us. Thanks again to Steve from Retro DJ for putting on such a great afternoon, providing us with both great music and lights!

New Year Celebrations!
We've had so much fun on our Forget Me Not unit today celebrating the New Year! Drinks were flowing and everyone was up on their feet singing and dancing!
We ended the party with a countdown and singing the traditional 'Auld Lang Syne' together. The perfect way to welcome the new year in together.
Yoga Sessions
An early morning seated Yoga session . The residents love activities and one of their favourites is a seated yoga session led by Rik one of our Activities team members.
Music Through the Ages!
Thank you to the talented Matt O'Neil for coming to perform for us! We had such a great morning of music and smiles!
Matt always likes to test our knowledge with a bit of music trivia between each song! Testing music knowledge helps keep the mind active, boosting memory and engagement. It’s a fun, enjoyable way to support our residents’ wellbeing and mental stimulation🎙
We look forward to rock and rolling with you again soon with Rock & Roll Music Therapy.
