Pottery workshop with residents. 8 residents actively participated and 2 watched with interest, 2 family members helped. The activity was led by a local potter. Explanations were very clear so all could participate. Lots of good conversations, especially with those who had previous skills in potter (one resident had been a potter). Others who had no previous experience quickly learned. At the end of the activity, the residents asked: "when the lady would be coming again"?
Excellent...
Excellent management. Staff talk to residents and are friendly and kind. Beautiful gardens. Rooms to take visitors and a big lounge too.
Lots of entertainment - parties - my dad had a singer come and people clapped and sang and some danced at his 92nd party.
Church service if people want it. Films, skittles, art, teddy tombola and garden party and Strawberry Fair this month. Excellent place.
Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your experiences of Bradbury Grange.
I am so pleased to hear your feedback covering all aspects of our service. Your comments are much appreciated and will be fed back to the staff team. Thank you again.

After living independently, this has been dad's home for the last 10 months - dad has dementia and was starting to become quite frail.
I looked at 5 homes in Whitstable and knew that Bradbury Grange was perfect for this time of dad's life.
Our first concern was for dad to be safe as in the night he can become confused. Bradbury has movement sensors and sensor mats in addition to the staff carrying out checks on residents. The rooms smell fresh, have ensuites and showers. The home has state of the art bathrooms - my dad loves his bath times and finds them very relaxing here.
There are 3 gardens (one a sensory garden) - It is wonderful to see the residents in the garden chatting/talking about the vegetables and listening to the birds.
The activities/entertainment is as good as being on holiday and help keep the residents active physically and mentally.
The managers and area manager are extremely kind, supportive and helpful.
We have peace of mind that dad lives here.
Beautiful...
Beautiful gardens. There is a church meeting and music on Sundays. Regular music (1940's - 1990's) for residents and visitors. Residents join in singing and dancing if they can (sitting or standing). Art activities and exercise. We like the little area where families can sit away from lounge if you want to.
In September last year, I lost my wife after 75 years, it upset me quite a lot. I was using care home support but it wasn't enough as there was no night care, so my lovely daughter spent time looking around for a nice care home, first the price and second would Dad like it?

In September last year, I lost my wife after 75 years, it upset me quite a lot. I was using care home support but it wasn't enough as there was no night care, so my lovely daughter spent time looking around for a nice care home, first the price and second would Dad like it? Bradbury Grange was the one. It is fantastic, thank you a very happy 95-year-old.

Ann joined MHA in 1980 and is our longest serving team member. Initially based at Cliff Deane in Tankerton, she moved to Bradbury Grange when residents transferred there in 2010 and is now a senior carer.
“I feel very honoured to be MHA’s longest serving employee. One of the best things over the years has been getting to know the people you care for, having a laugh with them and solving their problems as well as getting to know their families.
“Being a care worker is an interesting job. It is not without its challenges but it is very rewarding. You have to have patience and be interested in the people you care for. I always say to those joining to look at it like caring for your grandparents and how you would want to treat them."
