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
Armed Forces Day
Lancaster Grange celebrated Armed Forces Day. Staff at Lancaster and our residents are very proud of our community history, as the care home was built on the grounds of WW2 Balderton Air Field. It was a day of reminiscing and paying respects to the fallen.
National Cream Tea Day
Lancaster Grange celebrated national cream tea day. There was a lovely surprise delivery of goodies from one of our family members. A tasty afternoon for sure.
Morning Bingo
Residents at Lancaster Grange were up early for a game of 'morning bingo'. Always great fun for all.
CQC Rating 'Good'
Staff at residents are proudly pictured by Lancaster Grange's new Care Quality Commisons rating banner. The home is now rated as GOOD and the team will strive together to ensure we achieve 'outstanding' after their next inspection.
Green Fingers
Residents from our memory lane community were out on in the sunshine on our terrace, for a spot of gardening at Lancaster Grange.
Cupcake Day
Lancaster Grange today celebrated Alzheimer’s cupcake day. A big thank you to our domestic assistant Linzi Hade who kindly baked for us. Donations were made to raise money for a great cause.
