Activities at Drummond Grange Care Home
We understand that the people we support have passions and interests that could be difficult to pursue after moving into a care home – but that doesn’t mean we don’t encourage them to try! Some hobbies can define a person, so our Activities Coordinators are dedicated to ensuring that everyone we support is able to do what makes them happy to the best of their abilities. Social events are organised with individual tastes in mind and with the idea that residents have the opportunity to try new and exciting things.
Activities and Events Partnerships
As part of our bespoke life-enrichment programmes, we host a number of live virtual events in the home on a regular basis through a number of partnerships with places of interest and world class performance companies
Life at Drummond Grange Care Home
POM III Festival
And just like that POM III is finished and was another amazing success!! Everyone had so much fun together - no amount of rain is stopping us at Drummond.
Big thank you to everyone who came and joined in the fun with us and more importantly massive thank you to those who helped!!! We couldn’t have pulled this off without the great community spirit needed to set this up.
To the bands who performed you were all great and the residents loved you and loved dancing and singing along with you!!! We hope to see you next year!!
A trip to the Dalkeith Country Park
We took advantage of the recent sunny and warm weather to take a trip to Dalkeith Country Park for a stroll.
Our ladies who joined us enjoyed an ice-cream whilst watching the farm animals and enjoyed reminiscing about trips with their own families.
Boogie Beats
We had an amazing time dancing with our boogie beats class! The residents always enjoy seeing these little bundles of joy and this is a popular group activity.
We have so much fun with our intergenerational friends and always look forward to them visiting.
Special visitors at Drummond Grange
Yesterday we had some very special visitors — alpacas! Our residents were all smiles meeting these gentle, fluffy friends. There were plenty of cuddles, laughter, and even a few alpaca selfies!
It’s moments like these that bring so much joy to our home. A huge thank you to BobCat Alpacas and everyone who helped make this magical visit happen!
A fond farewell!
We all gathered to bid a fond farewell to our head of activities, Katie, who has done tremendous work for our residents here at Drummond Grange as she moves to our sister's home.
Katie will be missed, and we hope you enjoyed reminiscing with everyone about all the wonderful things you’ve done for our home !! Good luck in your new job !!
Boogie Beats
Our residents and little visitors had a fantastic time at this month’s Boogie Beats Intergenerational playgroup! There were smiles, laughter, and plenty of dancing as young and old came together for a joyful morning of music, movement, and connection.
Seeing friendships form across the generations is truly heartwarming. Thank you to everyone who joined us— we can’t wait for next month’s session!
