Activities at Cheshire Grange Care Home
The activities team are constantly striving to meet the varied needs of everyone who lives in our home, offering a wide range of group and individual social events. There are regular visits from entertainers, along with craft activities, baking, games & puzzle days and pampering sessions, which fill the week. However, we can always find time for outings and just spending that little bit of special time with residents who enjoy the peace and quiet. We aim to bring the activities to the individual, whilst making it a whole home experience.
Jo Eland
After originally starting at Cheshire Grange in May 2015, I'm delighted to be back in the role of Activities Coordinator. It is a privilege to be in this role and spend time, getting to know our ladies and gentleman and their loved one, whilst doing all the fun things that can make such a difference to their days.

Life at Cheshire Grange Care Home
Merry Christmas
A very Merry Christmas to all our residents at Cheshire Grange and our extended Cheshire Grange Family
Christmas Jumper Day
Residents and staff at Cheshire Grange pulled on their Christmas jumpers to day, one of the residents said we were all like walking Christmas decorations!
Spoonville
Cheshire Grange would like to introduce you to their Nativity Spoonville, residents have been very industrious over the past few weeks creating characters from wooden spoons. As with many of our activities the original task has been secondary to conversations that are triggered and as always the many laughs which are a vital ingredient.
Christmas songs
Cheshire Grange ladies were delighted when Dean Sinclair came to sing some Christmas songs for us and brought along a friend. The ladies had a lovely afternoon singing along and swaying to old time Christmas favourites, all that was missing were the snow flurries and the jingle of reindeer bells.
Magic of the Nutcracker
We experienced the magic of the Nutcracker with a special interactive workshop led by English National Ballet Associate Artists.
Our residents were able to take a magical journey thorough Edwardian London and to learn more about the enchanted Nutcracker characters: Clara, the Mouse King, and her valiant Nutcracker doll. The session included a chair-based dance workshop, clips of the ballet on stage and a Christmas carol sing-along, truly enjoyed by all.
Christmas truffles
We had a lovely time joining Paul Hawkins and Steve Wilkes from Unilever for an exciting immersive Christmas experience.
Our residents were welcomed with chocolate treats as Paul and Steve took them on an exciting chocolate truffle making and biscuit decorating journey.
To finish off the Christmas special event, our residents enjoyed a themed quiz and a singalong.
We all had a wonderful time.
