Activities at Cheshire Grange Care Home
The activities team are constantly striving to meet the varied needs of everyone who lives in our home, offering a wide range of group and individual social events. There are regular visits from entertainers, along with craft activities, baking, games & puzzle days and pampering sessions, which fill the week. However, we can always find time for outings and just spending that little bit of special time with residents who enjoy the peace and quiet. We aim to bring the activities to the individual, whilst making it a whole home experience.
Jo Eland
After originally starting at Cheshire Grange in May 2015, I'm delighted to be back in the role of Activities Coordinator. It is a privilege to be in this role and spend time, getting to know our ladies and gentleman and their loved one, whilst doing all the fun things that can make such a difference to their days.

Life at Cheshire Grange Care Home
St Patrick's Day Creations
Memory Lane residents enjoyed an afternoon preparing for our St Patrick's Day celebrations by creating some themed artwork.
Pancake Day
The aroma of pancakes filled the corridors as they were cooked to order. Residents on our Memory Lane community were treated to freshly cooked pancakes for breakfast and, later that day, a pancake afternoon tea was served in the ground floor lounge. This was an enjoyable social occasion for residents and their visitors.
World Book Day
This year, we chose books that have been made into Disney Films as our theme for World Book Day.
Residents helped to make bunting to decorate the lounges and reception and, on the day, all communities enjoyed afternoon tea with stories, quizzes, games and music that were all connected to our theme. The Mad Hatter was on hand all day to bring a smile to everyone's faces.
Fairtrade Fun
We were pleased to welcome Felicity and her fairtrade stall at Cheshire Grange. The stall was packed with Easter goodies, alongside the usual unique fairtrade gifts and ornaments. Residents, staff and visitors enjoyed browsing whilst having a chat and a cup of tea.
VR Experience
Residents got to enjoy the virtual reality experience for the first time at Cheshire Grange. From swimming with dolphins to visiting the Great Pyramids of Geza, they got to go to places they’d always dreamed of seeing, or revisit those from their past. It was an experience we’ll be sure to do again!
Santa Strikes Twice!
Santa and his apprentice stopped by for a bit lunch after a long night of delivering gifts recently!
