THE GRANGE GAZZETTE
JANUARY 2017 EDITION
We hope you enjoyed a lovely Christmas and wish residents, families, friends and staff a very Happy New Year.
Firstly, we would like to thank everyone for their support during our Christmas Fayre in December. You helped to raise a fantastic £1,285.40 which we have added to the Resident’s Fund. The fund provides activities and entertainment for everyone and your contributions continue to make such a difference.
We would also like to thank Father Christmas for calling at the Grange to see all the children and grandchildren during our ‘Breakfast with Santa’ event. We had a lovely
morning and everyone would like to thank you for their presents and letters.
DATES FOR YOUR JANUARY DIARY

Service in the main lounge from 10.15am

A DATE FOR YOUR FEBRUARY DIARY
On the afternoon of Wednesday 1st February we will be joined by the Sutton Bonington

Please make a date in your diary for the visit of Alan Hill who returns by popular demand! Alan entertains thousands of people on the Oceania cruise ships during the majority of the year but always enjoys his visits to the Grange. We look forward to joining him in the main lounge on Tuesday 10th January from 2pm for a collection of songs ‘his Dad used to like’.

This month we would like to wish Happy Birthday to Cynthia on the 9th, Eric on the 15th and Gladys on the 22nd January. Everyone at the Grange send their best wishes and hope you have a lovely time.
NOVEMBER QUIZ
Thank you to everyone who took part in our recent quiz and congratulations to Miriam for achieving top marks. Well done.
POEM OF THE MONTH
THE WIND OF JANUARY
By Christina Rossetti
On the wind on January,
Down flits the snow
Travelling from the frozen North
As cold as it can blow.
Poor robin redbreast,
Look where he comes,
Let him in to feel your fire,
And toss him of your crumbs.
