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
Macmillan Coffee Morning
Staff and residents held a charity coffee morning on the 25th September to help raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support.
We welcomed all of our staff and residents to enjoy a wide variety of different cakes and treats. Throughout the day, we also sold boxes of freshly made cupcakes to the local community.
We advertised our cupcakes prior to the event so that people could order them and then pick them up from our gate on the day.
Our coffee morning was a huge success, raising just over £80. Thank you to everybody who supported us with this!
Cool Sweet Treats
We called upon the local ice cream van to make a stop at Middletown Grange. During the lovely weather, an ice cream from the ice cream van was a great treat! Some of us enjoyed our ‘99’ with a flake out in the garden, whilst others had theirs delivered to them by staff.
Summer Fête
Residents and staff enjoyed attending our Summer Fête. We played lots of games, including giant Jenga, Quoits, Tin Can Alley.
We enjoyed sampling many cakes, as there were so many choices, whilst quenching our first with some Prosecco! Lots of raffle prizes were donated, which enabled us to allow every resident to win a prize which was fantastic!
We set up different time slots for our residents to attend the fete so that we could adhere to social distancing measures.
Virtual Dog Show
Our residents here at Middletown Grange really enjoyed judging for our virtual dog show. We had so many wonderful pictures entered and it was a really difficult decision for us all. We enjoyed some doggy bingo and short quizzes over refreshments. There were lots of prizes and certificates were won!
Middletown Hairdressing
Residents have really enjoyed having their hair done by one of our lovely members of our team. At Middletown Grange, we love to have a whole home approach, which means that all members of staff will join in with helping to provide activities that will stimulate our residents
Village Scarecrow Competition
The residents at Middletown Grange really enjoyed participating in the Hailey Village Scarecrow Competition. 'Celebrities' was the theme this year; we chose to make Marilyn Monroe.
