Earlier in the year Margaret became joint winner of the Terry Hallam Memorial Quiz Trophy. With 40 keepy-uppies during our balloon-tennis olympic challenge Margaret has clearly become the outstanding champion of the activities event.
A big well done from everyone at the Grange.

Congratulations to Margaret H on adding another winning trophy to her collection and for being our
Keepy-Uppy Champion of 2024!
Last month our residents enjoyed taking part in a mini-olympic games and each participant deservedly received a gold medal. Earlier in the year Margaret became joint winner of the Terry Hallam Memorial Quiz Trophy. With 40 keepy-uppies during our balloon-tennis olympic challenge Margaret has clearly become the outstanding champion of the activities event.
A big well done from everyone at the Grange.
