Activities at Lancaster Grange Care Home
Activities are the cornerstone of a wholesome home experience and our Activities Coordinators are always putting their creative minds to the test by organising new and exciting social events for residents to partake in. Of course, we take into account the likes and dislikes of those we support, so if someone doesn’t feel like trying something new, there will always be something on offer to reflect their personal interests. For the people who may just prefer some peace and quiet instead, we also offer one-to-one time that can be enjoyed with a nice cup of coffee or just a simple chat – whatever they desire.

Life at Lancaster Grange Care Home
Plant Potting
Residents at Lancaster Grange were out on our lovely terrace, potting aloe vera plants.
Underlay Underlay!
The Maracas and Rumba shakers were at the ready as residents and Lancaster Granger enjoyed a Mexican themed party. There was traditional music playing and fruit platters and everyone quenched their thirst with a Mexican shandy with lemons and limes.
Hero Bear
Charlotte our activities coordinator received a lovely 'hero bear' from Marjory, dressed in her distinctive pink activities uniform. Marjory's daughter had kindly crocheted the bear along with other goodies for all our staff.
Holiday Reminiscence
Residents at Lancaster Grange were taken down memory lane, reminiscing of the holidays they uses to have. They watched a short film of the sea side in the 1950's and looked at the map for their favourite holiday destinations and shared their memories and experiences.
