Staff always try to find out what makes you unique and what you like to do and offer activities to suit. It may be you wish to try something new and Tai Chi has been one of the new ventures and is enjoyed by many.

We strive to make the Grange a place where every resident and their families feel safe, valued and loved. Your kind words are truly appreciated.

Only concern is the communication as I hadn't been informed about a change in medication and I wasn't consulted about her being taken off site by another resident family for lunch.
I think this is a safe guarding concern as she is wheelchair bound and needs assistance getting in and out of the chair and with the bathroom.

Thank you for your kind review. We make it a priority to ensure that the residents are settled and happy and that they have the opportunity to take part in activities that will enhance their wellbeing. With a new manager in place, communication is a main focus on the current development plan. I can confirm that when residents are taken out, they are always accompanied by trained staff who can help with transfers and care.

The staff are always polite and friendly. My mother has lived here for over eleven years now, I have seen many many changes during that time. One of the issues I have though, is the amount of managers The Grange has had. I find this unsettling for residents, relatives and staff. My wish would be for continuity in a manager.
Thank you very much for your kind review and positive experience at The Grange. Your feedback means a great deal to the team, who work hard to provide compassionate, high-quality care and a welcoming environment for residents and visitors. We truly appreciate your support and thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts.

Since Christine has been a resident we do not have any concerns for her care ,safety and well being.
She has joined the choir and is often taken out on day trips.
My mother is so happy at The Grange. Her physical needs are all met by kind, caring staff using excellent facilities onsite. Her room is large and well lit with lots of her personal possessions around her. She has a beautiful tree outside her window which forms part of well kept, colourful gardens....
I enjoy visiting Mum in her home as it feels like walking into a family home where everyone is friendly and caring. The Grange staff do a wonderful job!
Thank you for your kind and honest review, this will definitely keep us going to deliver excellent servicse to our wonderful residents.

The best bit about this home is the warm and caring staff. They're great, amazing in fact. Nothing is ever too much trouble! They're always free for a chat and happy to update me about what dad has been up to. I visit regularly and whenever I do there are always carers interacting with residents which is lovely to see.
Oh and dinner always looks and smells great!
Lastly, my dad is happy. He always says to me "they're a good bunch here!" This obviously means a lot to me and my family.
I have always been pleased with the staff and well being of aunt when visiting her. The only negative feedback I have is that I feel that the internal/external doors should be automated to allow one person to push a wheelchair through. Also I would like to see ID being warn by the staff or name...

The only negative feedback I have is that I feel that the internal/external doors should be automated to allow one person to push a wheelchair through. Also I would like to see ID being warn by the staff or name tags.
From the start of 2025 to her passing on 18 June, my mother-in-law received truly outstanding care at The Grange. The care home manager, went above and beyond-not just tending to physical needs, but nurturing her spiritual wellbeing and honoring her worship with great compassion. During four...
We would 100% recommended the Grange to any family members or friends. I would not have chosen the Grange with the previous manager. The manager made a massive difference, to us as a family.
Thank you so much for your kind words, I will be sure to hand these compliment to the care team. We were honoured to support your mother-in-law during this time and to spend time getting to know her and your family. We wish you all the best.

My mother moved into The Grange in July 2024 after suffering mobility problems at her home following a fall in January 2024. Her overall health and mobility have improved since the move, and she is much happier in herself and does not suffer from loneliness like she used to back at home. She had a setback following another fall in March 2025, but following another hospital stay, the care home staff have rehabilitated her with help from physio to the point where she can stand! Excellent work!

I have moved my mum from another care home to The Grange. Since she has been here, she is so much happier and relaxed. The staff are very friendly & helpful and nothing is a problem; they are there as soon as Mum calls. Mum has been taken out to town and out for lunch, and the food in the home is hot, fresh and edible. The care home never smells; it is so clean, the room is clean, large, and feels like home. The entertainment is great, Mum has had her hair done every week in the salon. I am so pleased I moved Mum; I have my mum back.
Thank you so much for your lovely words. We're so happy that your mum has settled so well into the home and is enjoying her time. Its our pleasure caring for her! I'll be sure to pass your kind words onto our staff. We appreciate your support!

He is very happy and well cared for by all the wonderful staff and management who do an amazing job. They are friendly, helpful, kind and very professional. I am extremely happy that he is being cared for by a wonderful team. He really enjoys his trips out and all the activities that they provide. His room is always clean, as is the rest of the home. The facilities are excellent. I am very happy to know that they are taking such good care of him and have found the perfect home.
Thank you so much for your kind words - it's our pleasure looking after him! I'll be sure to pass your lovely comments to The team. We really appreciate it.
Caring staff in a challenging role. A big thank you to those who looked after mum in her final years.

My mum has settled in very well at The Grange. She keeps busy with lots of activities daily. She particularly enjoys the choir practice and the crafts. There are always activities in the mornings and afternoons, so never a chance to be bored.

My husband was at The Grange, first time away from home. The staff really put our minds at rest, made us very welcome and the two weeks he was there was very happy. I had lots of contact with the home. We have no hesitation in recommending to anyone else.

The Grange is a superb care home. Lovely staff and management. The place is freshly decorated, safe rooms, corridors, always clean. Moving Mum here was a great decision.

The Grange is a caring, friendly and homely place. My aunt has been there for a while, on respite. They have looked after her very well and she is regaining her confidence. The staff are all extremely helpful and always cheerful.

The only frustration at times is if an item is identified as being of benefit to my wife I normally have to source this myself e.g. a V pillow. Most of the staff are caring as is the manager and we often chat about the ongoing needs of my wife.
Thank you so much for your kind words - I will pass this on to The Care team. It's our pleasure looking after your wife.
My mother only spent a short time at The Grange Care Home before passing away. She received kind, personal care during that time and the management and carers went out of their way to advise and help the close family.

My mother entered The Grange for respite after breaking her arm at the age of 92 but ended up staying for almost 5 months. From the first day and every day of her stay, every single member of staff displayed the utmost kindness and consideration towards her. They couldn't do enough to make her stay...
We were able to visit at any time and there were lots of activities going on, outside visits and shows at the home. My mother is now fully recovered and back in her own home, but I would thoroughly recommend The Grange to anyone considering a care home for a relative.
Thank you so much for your kind words - I'll be sure to share this with the staff! We're delighted we was able to support Mum in her recovery to get her back home as she wished.

My mother has been in The Grange for 16 months. The management and staff are excellent and keep me informed of any problems and issues with Mum. All staff are very helpful and very approachable and if they can help they will, without any hesitation. My mum is very settled in The Grange and was very happy to return there after a short spell in hospital, so that was a very good sign of how good The Grange is. Thank you to all.
Dear Debbie, thank you so much for your kind review. It's our pleasure looking after mum! I'll pass your kind words over to the staff team.

Hi, I’m Catherine, the Lifestyle Coordinator at The Grange, where I’ve been dedicated to creating meaningful experiences for the past 10 years. I love being creative, coming up with fresh ideas to engage residents, and working closely with the team to ensure everyone feels involved and supported.
Throughout my career, I’ve been fortunate to achieve several milestones, including awards for Excellence in Resident Experience and Excellence in Community Engagement. I’m proud to have secured a £10k grant from the Utley Foundation and to have sung with a choir at the Royal Albert Hall and Universal Music Studios, performing in front of Tony Christie—a truly unforgettable experience!
Outside of work, I run a sweet business, which lets me share my love for delicious treats. In my free time, I enjoy gardening, spending time with dogs, shopping, and staying active with keep-fit activities.
