In addition to providing nursing and dementia care, we offer a range of services that can be used by residents (and non-residents again when Covid-19 restrictions are lifted) . Short term rehabilitation

After a period in hospital further convalescence may be needed before returning home. Here, our staff can help increase mobility, rebuild strength and boost confidence. Short breaks

Whether it’s for four weeks or four months, we can provide round-the-clock care of the highest standard. (Rooms are subject to availability and a minimum four week stay.) Activities

We also run a range of activities on each wing and in our community hub that are both fun and engaging, from gardening and baking to games and quizzes. We also usually have a range of regular entertainers who come to visit us (not currently due to Covid-19 restrictions, but we look forward to welcoming entertainers again soon). Hairdressing

Our hairdresser is available for a cut and blow dry, set or short back and sides. (Booking in advance is advisable.)

We ended September on a delicious note by baking some wonderfully tasty apple and cinnamon muffins!

Everyone got involved and worked together as a team, from preparing the ingredients to mixing the batter and, of course, enjoying the delicious final result. There were plenty of smiles along the way, and the muffins were a big hit!

Gold Standards Framework Accreditation — here we come!

It’s going to be a journey, but today marks another exciting step as we attend the Palliative Care, End of Life & Advance Care Planning Conference.

We’re looking forward to learning, sharing ideas and bringing new knowledge back to Foxburrow Grange to continue improving the care and support we provide to our residents.

Here’s to the journey ahead!

Last week, we had a wonderful morning joining the Memory Brew group at C3 Church.

Our residents enjoyed delicious drinks and snacks, fun quizzes and some beautiful, calming live music. It was lovely to see everyone so relaxed, settled and happy, enjoying time together and being part of the community.

Another day, another candle-making session — but this time with a twist!

Our residents got creative designing and making their very own sand candles — a fun alternative to traditional hot-wax candle making, and reusable too!

We started by sketching our designs before getting stuck into creating our candles. With plenty of drinks, biscuits and conversation along the way, everyone enjoyed a lovely and creative morning!

Good morning!

This weekend, our Activities Coordinator, Dina, will be taking part in a 10K Night Walk around London to raise money for Cancer Research UK — a charity that is close to our hearts.

Cancer affects so many people, including those we care for, as well as their families, friends and loved ones. By taking part in this challenge, Dina hopes to help raise vital funds to support cancer research and make a difference to those affected by the disease.

If you would like to support Dina and this important cause, please consider making a donation using the link below.

Every donation, no matter how big or small, would be hugely appreciated. Thank you for your support!

1 in 2 people will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. Every single pound you donate makes a difference to Cancer Research UK’s ground breaking work. Donate to my Giving Page today and help bring forward the day when all cancers are cured.

Meet Biscuit!

One of our lovely staff members kindly brought their tortoise, Biscuit, in for a special visit last week! Our residents had the opportunity to feed and hold Biscuit while learning some fascinating facts about tortoises and how to care for them.

It was a wonderful hands-on experience, and Biscuit was certainly a popular visitor!

🥕 Guess the Vegetable! 🥦

Last week, our residents had lots of fun trying to guess different vegetables using their sense of touch. There were plenty of laughs and some very funny guesses!

A simple, fun sensory activity that encouraged conversation, laughter and plenty of engagement.
