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
Arts & Crafts
Residents and loved ones enjoyed getting creative when Emma from Creative Mojo joined us to host and arts & crafts session. We found ourselves painting sunflowers and pumpkins using autumn colours, which made the final piece.
Dominoes Training
We learned that a resident used to play dominoes at a professional level, and he has recently started teaching staff. Not for money though; that would be folly!
Songs of Praise
Our 'Songs of Praise' service was a huge hit with residents and members of the local Hailey village. Singers came to sing hymns of old and new, which everyone enjoyed.
Macmillan Coffee Morning
We hosted a Macmillan Coffee Morning and raised a total of £82 for Macmillan Cancer Support. Well done and thank you to everyone who donated!
Sponsored Walk
Residents and staff joined Cedar Court Care Home in Witney on a walk through the centre of town to raise money for the Alzheimer's Society. All in all, we walked 1.9 miles and raised almost £300. This was quite the achievement for one resident, who managed to walk the whole 2 miles with a couple of breaks in-between.
Pet Therapy
Residents enjoyed a visit from some dogs on International Dog Day. Pets are a vital part of people’s lives and provide company and friendship for those we support.
