Activities at South Grange Care Home
Our specialist activities staff are committed to organising a mix of activities and events for residents and the local community to get involved in, including trips out to local places of interest in our minibus and visits from entertainers and musicians. It is important to us that each individual who we support can get as much from these as possible, so we try our best to arrange activities that reflect their interests and capabilities as best as possible, and encourage them to participate in any way they can. We also encourage relatives to join with activities and events as often as they can.

Life at South Grange Care Home
A Triple Celebration
Well done to Kate Lloyd, who was named as South Grange's Employee of the Month for January for always being there to support management, her constant positivity, stepping up when needed and remaining bright, bubbly, reliable and professional.
A big well done to Rose Lozada and Elma Llasus as well, who both recently celebrated their 15th year working for Barchester.
Care Home Open Day
An absolutely amazing time was had at our Las Vegas-themed Open Day. Residents, visitors, staff, families and friends all came along and enjoyed an outstanding day of fun, which included casino tables, mocktails, a buffet, a raffle and musical entertainment. Staff and residents really got into the theme of the day by dressing up and decorating the home to look like Vegas for the day.

Congratulations to Senior Activities Coordinator, Gill Conway, and Activities Coordinator, Vicky McLean, as they were both named Employee of the Month for November at South Grange.
