Activities at Middletown Grange Care Home
We aim to provide a variety of activities that will both mentally and physically stimulate the people we support. Residents have a range of different needs and interests, and it is crucial that these are reflected in the activities available, so that each individual is able to participate to the best of their ability. We organise both group and individual social events that everyone is welcome to take part in; there is a weekly outing to local places of interest, including the garden centre and the local farms, parks and museums. In addition, we enjoy regular visits from entertainers and even exotic animals. We also host events such as 'Beach Day' that relatives and friends are encouraged to participate in. Getting involved in charities is a big part of our ethos, so events such as 'PJs for Pudsey' and pirate-themed days are regularly hosted to raise money for different foundations, including the Alzheimer’s Society.

Life at Middletown Grange Care Home
Over the Rainbow
Residents, staff and the local community came together to create a giant rainbow made out of pom-poms. We had lots of fun making the pom-poms and creating a rainbow outside our home to represent positivity, hope and togetherness during this time.
Crocodiles of the World
“Some of our residents had a fantastic morning visiting crocodiles of the world in Carterton. We got to see the crocodiles being fed, there were lots of laughs as the crocodiles used their extra-long tails to jump up out of the water and catch their food.
We also saw meer cats, otters and extra-large tortoises. One of our residents George said “it reminded me of trips I used to go on with my family”.
Pancake Tasting Session
There were lots of pancakes eaten at Middletown Grange this year. Residents and staff had a tasting session with all different toppings, Sugar and lemon was the winner! Residents also had lots of fun flipping pancakes in our competition.
Following on from this, some of us have chosen to take up new hobbies rather than giving something up for Lent. Some of the hobbies chosen were dance classes, more exercises and one resident has chosen to take on running the homes crossword session.”
Illustration Workshop
Local author and illustrator, Rob Jones, came to Middletown Grange. We welcomed local school to attend our illustration work shop, everyone had lots of fun.
Trip to Local Cafe
Team members and residents at Middletown Grange had a lovely trip out to a local café for lunch. Everyone enjoyed the afternoon.
