Activities at Middletown Grange Care Home
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.

Life at Middletown Grange Care Home
Fabulous Flapjacks
As part of our 'Daily Living' activities schedule, several of our ladies enjoyed following the recipe and making Flapjacks earlier today. They felt it such a fun and easily recipe to follow, and once cooked...Believe us they're delicious!
Magical Aqua Painting
During our morning arts & crafts session, our residents really enjoy the magical aqua paints; seeing each colourful image appear gives them a real sense of achievement.
Magnetic Jigsaws
When it’s too wet for a garden walk our memory lane residents can still plan their vegetable plots with these wonderful 'Relish' Magnetic Puzzles.
We have several different activity boards all designed to aid and improve the overall wellbeing of our residents with dementia and Alzheimer’s.
China Cup Bird Feeders
Last week our residents took great pleasure in mixing seed and suet, before carefully filling china cups for display in the gardens to feed the birds. Don't they look wonderful!
We can't wait to see which of our feathered friends come to visit.
The Queens Birthday & National Tea Day
Yesterday 21st April, our residents took part in a virtual tour of Buckingham Palace as we celebrated the Queens' 95th birthday. Our residents are very patriotic, and wanted to send Her Majesty all the very best wishes, and to say she is in our thoughts.
We combined the celebrations with National Tea Day, whereby our residents had the opportunity to taste a number of tea varieties including; Pure Peppermint, Lemon & Ginger and Earl Grey. The majority preferred a good old Tetley and slice of cake!
To send thanks to the local Doctors, and Podiatry team; our residents helped package up some 'Tea & Biscuit' parcels. We do hope they can all can take a well-deserved break, and enjoy a cuppa on us.
