Activities at Cumberland Grange Care Home
We understand that the people we support have passions and interests that could be difficult to pursue after moving into a care home – but that doesn’t mean we don’t encourage them to try! Some hobbies can define a person, so our Activities Coordinators are dedicated to ensuring that everyone we support is able to do what makes them happy to the best of their abilities. Social events are organised with individual tastes in mind and with the idea that residents have the opportunity to try new and exciting things.

I have been in the care sector since 2008, and I also have a degree in teaching. I am here to arrange and run a varied range of activities for our residents to take part in, keep them entertained and enrich their lives. From flower arranging, quizzes, arts and crafts to movies in the cinema, I try to make sure there is something for everyone here to take part in, and tailor events to suit each resident.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN
BEAUTIFUL BLOOMS
Whether it’s Autumn, Winter, Spring or Summer, one thing for sure is that our residents will always love to do some flower arranging with gorgeous flowers to put around our home.
It’s amazing what a bright bunch of blooms can do, the conversations they spark and the smiles they bring.
Many of our residents have always been keen gardeners or lovers of gardens, and here at Cumberland we are so lucky to have such a fantastic garden which gives us so much beauty all year round.
CUMBERLAND GRANGE TURNS 3
Oh what a wonderful evening we had at our 3rd Birthday party.
Another year under our belt and another fantastic evening celebrating!
Thank you so much to all of our families and all of the professionals for joining us and helping us dance the night away, you are all simply AMAZING.
A big thank you to the Time Scales ladies for once again gracing us with your beautiful voices and upbeat personalities - so many fun and fabulous songs which got us all up on our feet dancing!
& of course, a huge thank you to The Magic of Graham Prigg for once again blowing all of our minds throughout the night. 10/10.
Our residents had such a great evening and for that, we can’t thank everyone enough for pulling together to give them a night of fun, love and laughter, because they are the reason we do what we do!
A very special 95th Birthday celebration
A recent Birthday celebration for our beautiful Diana.
She enjoyed a Birthday lunch and delicious cake in the private dining room with her family which was wonderfully wholesome and the perfect way to celebrate her 95th Birthday.
Just look how amazing these pictures are!
This week, we had such a wonderful visit from some of the children at Kiddi Caru Nursery (Sowton) who brought in lots of beautiful pictures for Cumberland Granges 3rd Birthday party today.
Using a Birthday cake template the children got creative and done such a fabulous job as you can see.
There were four classes, Oak, Fern, Willow and Bracken and our residents chose one winner from each class - it was an almost impossible task as ALL pictures were simply fantastic. But they did manage (after much time!) to decide and today Mica our Home Services Advisor popped down to deliver the goods.
Prizes included story books, colouring books, games and creative sets.
We’d love to thank all of the children for taking part. You made our residents day!
We can’t wait to see you all again soon.
