Activities at Burwood Grange Care Home

Activities are an integral part of life at our care home. We want to ensure that the people we support have as much fun as possible during their time with us, so it’s important that our activities programme is created with the interests of residents in mind. Our skilled Activities Coordinators bring a certain uniqueness to the home that can’t be found anywhere else, and which is reflected in the activities they organise.

Life at Burwood Grange Care Home

Bingo Bonanza

We’ve linked up with all Barchester care homes and hospitals across the country for Barchester’s Bingo Bonanza.

Our residents were treated to some exciting virtual games of Bingo as part of Barchester’ very own game show series.

We all had a fantastic time and enjoyed some friendly competition.

Garden Maintenance

Start, Middle and End! 

At Burwood Grange, Chris and Nina have been busy fixing up some areas of their garden.

Here are some photos that show their progress through the day. It was a job well done and they certainly deserved to put their feet up after this! doesn't it look lovely?

World Cocktail Day

Luckily for us at Burwood Grange, we have the most beautiful bar which made the prefect location for our cocktail celebrations!

We made a range of juicy mocktails and tasty cocktails for everyone to try, then the residents had a go at creating their own drinks.

Everyone had such a great time, we feel like every day should be cocktail day!

Gardening Club

This week at the Burwood Grange Gardening club, we re-potted the plants that we started to grow a few weeks ago.

Sitting out in the sun, keeping our fingers green and chatting away is a form of therapy to us and is something we all enjoy a great deal. 

Pamper Time

Avis was delighted with her nails after her pamper afternoon in the Salon at Burwood Grange.

She has been showered with compliments and we are not surprised, the Beautiful Red nail varnish she chose looks absolutely gorgeous!

 

The Grand National

This weekend at Burwood Grange we were excited to watch The Grand National. We gathered in our Bar for some pre-race drinks and discussed which horses we thought would be in the top 5.

We then took our seats in the cinema for the big race and after lots of excitement and cheering it was all over for another year.

What a great afternoon!
