Activities at Denmead 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 won’t encourage them to try! Some hobbies can define a person, so our activities team is 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.

Vicky Burgess
Activities Co-Ordinator
Being Head of life enrichment is not a job it is a passion. Vicky has been working in the health and social care sector for 23 years. Vicky has already been working at Denmead Grange for a year as a valued Senior Carer. Vicky already has extensive knowledge about the home and our residents which means she already has an insight into what the resident enjoy. Vicky is looking forward to her role as she believes that Life Enrichment is a truly rewarding role where she can ensure everyday is meaningful to the people we care for. My aim is to ensure that our residents get to continue doing the things they love, trying new things and extending their skills and knowledge. My goal each day is to bring enjoyment, laughter and smiles to everyone at Denmead Grange!
Celebrating life at Denmead Grange Care Home
Getting out and about
We have enjoyed many outings on the bus this month. The gentleman really enjoyed our visit to the local pub for Father’s Day. We invited our resident’s family to join us there.
The picturesque view from Portsdown Hill is always a favourite for our residents. We enjoyed an ice cream whilst picking out all the landmarks.
Let's get moving!
Our residents really embrace our exercise classes. We offer a variety of classes, from movement to music, strength and stretch, yoga, walking, and indoor tennis and football.
This has really helped improve residents' mobility and wellbeing. Our residents said they didn’t realise exercise could be so much fun.
D Day Commemorations
We enjoyed a day full of D-Day activities. Charlotte came to entertain us in the morning.
We had a fabulous time singing to the wartime classics with her, then our amazing Kitchen team cooked us a themed lunch, and to finish the day we followed it with a D-Day quiz.
Canvas and Cocktails
Our residents enjoyed a wellbeing arts and crafts session which involved painting flowers onto individual canvas’s . This was accompanied by a selection of Cocktails chosen by the residents
VE Day Celebrations
We celebrated VE day in style. We enjoyed a family and friends street style party. We played lots of games and sang the afternoon away with a fabulous singer McKenzie. We had a delicious afternoon tea prepared by our kitchen team.
Afternoon Tea Birthday Celebrations
Our lovely Pam celebrated her Birthday at the home. The team decorated our terrace and she was joined by her best friend of 80 years and her daughter Carol. Pam wanted to spend the day at the home with her family. They enjoyed a home made afternoon tea and bubbles in the sun. There was lots of lovely memories and stories shared.
Birthday Celebrations
The residents and team at Denmead Grange love an excuse for celebration and a cake, and what better excuse than some Birthdays.
Country and Western Comes to Denmead
Our lovely resident Doreen loved country music and would of loved to attend a show but unfortunately cannot physically go out anymore. So we brought a Country singer into the home and had a full themed day for Dorothy
Memory Lane Gardens
Spring has sprung in April in our Home.
