Spring is on its way, and here at The Grange, we have a truly wonderful month planned! March is packed full of music, laughter, creativity, gentle exercise, pampering, and plenty of opportunities to reminisce and make new memories together. We can’t wait to share all these special moments with our lovely residents.
We begin the month with a heart-warming session of reminiscing and storytelling. Residents will gather together to share treasured memories, funny moments, childhood adventures, and life experiences. These sessions are always filled with laughter, meaningful conversation, and connection. It’s a beautiful way to celebrate each other’s unique journeys while strengthening friendships within our Grange family.
Creativity will be flowing as we dive into an exciting arts and crafts session! From painting and colouring to seasonal decorations, residents will have the chance to express themselves artistically and create something they can proudly display. Crafting is not only relaxing but also a wonderful way to boost mood and spark imagination.
We are delighted to welcome back Colin the Singer for an afternoon of fantastic live music. Residents can sing along to beloved classics, tap their feet, and even enjoy a little dance if they wish. Music has such a magical way of bringing back memories and lifting spirits — we’re sure this will be a lively and joyful afternoon.
For World Book Day, we’ll be celebrating the joy of reading. Residents can share favourite books, poems, and authors, and listen to short readings of classic stories. There may even be a little character-themed fun! It’s a lovely opportunity to relax, spark discussion, and celebrate the stories that have shaped our lives.
In honour of International Women’s Day, residents will write down the names of inspirational women who have influenced their lives. These heartfelt tributes will be hung on our special “Inspiration Tree” for everyone to admire. It will be a meaningful and empowering activity, celebrating strength, courage, love, and achievement.
Put your thinking caps on! Our Quiz Day promises friendly competition, teamwork, and lots of laughs. With a mixture of general knowledge, music, history, and fun trivia questions, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. A little brain workout and a lot of fun guaranteed!
Relaxation takes centre stage with our much-loved Pamper Day. Residents can enjoy gentle hand massages, nail care, soothing music, and calming aromatherapy. It’s all about feeling special, refreshed, and cared for — a truly blissful experience.
We’re thrilled to welcome Terry the Singer for another musical afternoon. With a wonderful selection of well-known tunes from across the decades, residents can sing along and enjoy the uplifting atmosphere that live entertainment always brings to The Grange.
A peaceful yet engaging day filled with jigsaw puzzles of all sizes. Residents can work together to complete beautiful images, encouraging teamwork, concentration, and conversation. There’s nothing more satisfying than placing that final piece!
A very special visit from our furry (and possibly feathered!) friends. Animal therapy sessions bring comfort, joy, and lots of smiles. Residents can enjoy gentle interaction, cuddles, and learning about the animals — a truly heartwarming experience for all.
We’ll kick off our St Patrick’s celebrations with themed arts and crafts. Expect plenty of green, shamrocks, and festive decorations as residents create cheerful pieces to brighten up The Grange.
The celebrations continue with delicious cake decorating! Residents can get creative with icing, sprinkles, and festive colours before enjoying a well-earned sweet treat. Fun, laughter, and tasty results are guaranteed.
A little friendly competition with our exciting darts session! Residents can test their aim, cheer each other on, and enjoy the buzz of the game in a safe and supportive environment. It’s always full of encouragement and laughter.
Another opportunity to gather, chat, and share treasured memories. These sessions are always uplifting and remind us of the incredible lives and experiences within our home.
Time to get moving! This fun and gentle exercise session encourages residents to stretch, sway, and move to music at their own pace. It’s all about staying active, boosting energy, and having fun together.
A fantastic group game where residents answer fun “Have you ever?” questions and share the stories behind their answers. Expect surprising tales, laughter, and wonderful conversations as we discover more about each other.
We’re excited to welcome Dave the Singer for an entertaining afternoon of live music. With plenty of well-loved songs, residents can sing, clap, and enjoy the vibrant atmosphere.
An energetic and light-hearted activity session featuring balloon tennis and other fun ball games. These activities are perfect for gentle exercise, coordination, and plenty of giggles.
Another chance to relax and unwind with our soothing pamper session. A calm environment, gentle treatments, and lots of care will leave everyone feeling refreshed and valued.
Residents will explore a variety of easy-to-play musical instruments while enjoying guided chair-based exercises. Combining rhythm and movement makes this session both stimulating and uplifting.
A classic games day featuring dominoes, cards, and crosswords. Whether it’s strategic thinking or relaxed play, there’s something for everyone. A wonderful way to socialise and enjoy friendly competition.
Lights down, snacks ready! Our cinema day will feature a popular film along with delicious treats and goodies. Residents can sit back, relax, and enjoy the full cinema experience right here at The Grange — the perfect way to end a fantastic month.
