Six months of Gillingham Grange 💙
Looking back over the past half year, it’s incredible to see how far we’ve come. From welcoming our very first resident, to the blessing of our home, to celebrating birthdays, parties, events and fayres, we are sooo proud of everything we have celebrated and achieved over the past 6 months.
Of course the number one reason why we do what we do are our wonderful residents. It is truly an honour to provide care and support to each and every one of you. We’ve been there through life’s most precious and emotional moments – supporting some through their final days with dignity and compassion, and helping others recover and regain independence to return home. Being part of these journeys is a privilege.
We’ve opened our home to the community over trick or treat, made magical memories at Christmas and Easter, enjoyed trips out together, and even had a very special guest… Henry the vacuum joining us on our grand open day (still a firm favourite! 😊). Along the way, we’ve also had the privilege of working alongside local charities and becoming part of the wider community.
A huge, heartfelt thank you goes to our incredible team who celebrated their 6 month anniversary. Their dedication, compassion and hard work have made everything possible (I may be biased but I must be the luckiest GM EVER). It’s no surprise that they were awarded the People Award at the South West Managers Meeting – so truly deserved. Six months ago, they began their journey here at Gillingham Grange, and everything we’ve achieved since is down to them.
Here’s to the memories we’ve made, the lives we’ve touched, and the community we continue to build together.
And here’s to the next 6 months… and beyond ✨
