A special Mother's Day
Our Activities Team is dedicated to ensuring that we organise events that encourage our residents to host their families and friends at Alice Grange. Our home is always to open to loved ones who wish to take part in our life enrichment program.
To celebrate Mother's Day The Alice Grange team organised a high tea and the Chef produced a selection of home made finger sandwiches and homemade cakes and bakes. With entertainments relatives joined their Mother's to thank them on this special day.
Ensuring that we host events that relatives and friends can join is very important to us here at Alice Grange.
A sunny day out
Supporting residents to enjoy outings, shopping, meals out and other trips is a key aspect of the weekly activities calendar.
Our Residents enjoyed some sunshine and fresh air (at last) with a trip out to the river Deben. There were smiles all round and they truly enjoyed getting back to nature and the sunshine and fresh air.
Regular outings are just one aspect of our life enrichment program and all the trips we take are at the request of the residents. Our monthly activities calendar boasts a range of outings and entertainment.
Spring has sprung
At Alice Grange we support and encourage our residents to continue doing the things they love whilst also making new friends. We hold regular activities that help or residents use cognitive and motor skills to provide holistic benefits that enhance the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of residents.
Our Residents enjoy the gardening facilities at the home and got some early spring potting going this week. They can't wait for spring and utlising the green house to pot and as the summer comes grow some of their favourite plants and tomatoes.
At Alice Grange we support and encourage our residents to continue doing the things they love whilst also making new friends and exploring new adventures.
