Activities at Middletown Grange Care Home
Our teams are trained to enrich the lives of residents through stimulating the mind, body and soul, and taking the time to learn about each person to ensure everyone receives support that adds enrichment to their life. We aim to provide a variety of activities that will both mentally and physically stimulate the people we support. Residents have a range of different needs and interests, and it is crucial that these are reflected in the activities available, so that each individual is able to participate to the best of their ability. We organise both group and individual social events that everyone is welcome to take part in; there is a weekly outing to local places of interest, including the garden centre and the local farms, parks and museums. In addition, we enjoy regular visits from entertainers and even exotic animals. We also host events such as 'Beach Day' that relatives and friends are encouraged to participate in. Getting involved in charities is a big part of our ethos, so events such as 'PJs for Pudsey' and pirate-themed days are regularly hosted to raise money for different foundations, including the Alzheimer’s Society.
Activities and Events Partnerships
As part of our bespoke life-enrichment programmes, we host a number of live virtual events in the home on a regular basis through a number of partnerships with places of interest and world class performance companies
Life at Middletown Grange Care Home

Pet Therapy Dog Florence!
We are very lucky to have Florence, the pet therapy dog stop by on a weekly basis to come and see us at Middletown Grange. Animal stimulation is so important within our life enrichment programme in our home, and Florence pays a huge part in this, spending time with us, allowing us to give her treats is so enjoyable and relaxing for us.
Keeping fit and healthy!
Every week we are joined by Alfie who supports the team and residents here at Middletown Grange with exercise classes. These can vary from seated exercise, using specific parts of our body and most importantly keep our brains active and busy. We love having these classes, more and more residents attend every week and everyone loves being involved!
It also means we feel less guilty about the tea and cake we have every day!
St Johns Church Visit
On Sunday we went for morning service at St Johns Church in Hailey. We are so lucky to have this beautiful historic landscape next door to us, with most of our rooms overlooking the church and the grounds.
Whilst we provide a monthly church service in our home, its always important to ensure our residents are offered the opportunity to attend services each week and its always nice to bump into the local community of Hailey!
Arts and Crafts Afternoon
We put our craft making skills to the test this week. avoiding the storms and rain outside and making some colourful additions to our activity room here at Middletown Grange.
It's so important that we keep our hands active and it's lovely to see everyone getting stuck in and coming up with some great ideas.
If anybody would like to come and join us for a crafts event please get in touch with us or message us directly through facebook.
