🌸 Weekly Wrap Up at Oakland Grange 🌸

It has been a lovely week filled with creativity, music and special celebrations here at Oakland Grange.

Residents enjoyed a calm and creative flower pressing session, carefully choosing their favourite blooms and arranging them ready to dry. It was a peaceful afternoon full of conversation and shared memories with beautiful keepsakes created!

Music filled the home when the talented Maddi joined us, singing her heart out and creating such a joyful atmosphere. Our residents loved every moment - big thank you, Maddi, for brightening the day with your wonderful voice.

Our arts and crafts sessions were full of colour as residents made shamrocks ready for St Patrick’s Day and created beautiful flower arrangements to brighten the home. The results were fantastic and everyone enjoyed getting creative together.

We also had some lovely relaxed moments during a chilled Friday, spending time together and enjoying good company.

A real highlight was welcoming Emma and Rares, the amazing ballroom dancers, who filled the room with elegance and energy. It was a truly special performance that brought plenty of smiles and toe tapping joy.

We finished the week celebrating Mother’s Day with a wonderful afternoon tea. A huge thank you to our incredible staff and chefs who worked so hard to create such a beautiful and memorable afternoon. We’re also sending love to all mothers, grandmothers, and mother figures - those with us today and those remembered always.

A beautiful heartwarming week at Oakland Grange 💛

🏵️ Weekly Wrap Up at Oakland Grange 🏵️

It has been another busy and uplifting week filled with activity, creativity and special celebrations.

Our week started with Monday morning keep-fit, getting everyone moving and energised for the days ahead. Later in the week, residents enjoyed a relaxed News & Views session, reading and discussing local stories - including the planned renovations at the Harvester site - which sparked some great conversations and shared opinions around the table.

Creativity was in full swing as residents made Welsh dragons to celebrate St David’s Day and later designed colourful bookmarks for World Book Day, sharing favourite books and stories while crafting together.

Music brought sunshine into the home when the steel pan duo visited, filling the room with rhythm, laughter and plenty of toe tapping fun. Residents even had the chance to try the drums themselves - what a fantastic afternoon! We also enjoyed some friendly competition with a lively game of indoor tennis.

There were lovely quiet moments too, including an early morning garden stroll where Janet spotted the first signs of spring beginning to appear.

We celebrated also a very special birthday - happy birthday to Dot from all of us!

It was also a time to recognise and celebrate others. On Employee Appreciation Day, we thanked our incredible team for their kindness and dedication, and on International Women’s Day we celebrated the inspiring women who make Oakland Grange such a special place - from our wonderful residents to our amazing staff.

Another week full of connection, laughter and making memories together 💛

We have a favour to ask.

If you have someone who lives with us at Oakland Grange, or you've visisted us recently, would you consider leaving us a review on Facebook?

We know how much trust you place in us. Choosing a care home for a family member is one of the most significant decisions anyone makes, and we never take that responsibility lightly.

Reviews matter more than you might think. When families are searching for the right home – often during a stressful and emotional time – they look for reassurance from people who've been in their position. Your honest experience, whether it's about the care, the food, the atmosphere, or how we've communicated with you, helps them make an informed choice.

You don't need to write an essay. A few sentences about what you've observed, how your family member has settled, or how our team has supported you – that's genuinely valuable.

If there's something we could do better, we'd rather hear it directly. Please speak to Kim at Oakland Grange. We can't fix what we don't know about.

Thank you for being part of our community.

Our forest is growing.

Through our partnership with JUST ONE Tree, Oakland Care Group has now planted 852 trees across reforestation projects in Brazil, Madagascar, and Kenya, alongside kelp regeneration off the coasts of the Philippines and Australia.

This month we added another 154 trees – one for every month a resident occupies one of our rooms.

These aren't just numbers. Our forest creates rural employment, provides homes for wildlife and marine life, and will absorb approximately 262 tonnes of CO2 as it grows.

"Looking after the seedlings is a source of livelihood; it helped me send my first born son to college" – Salome, Kenya.

Caring for our residents. Caring for our planet. Both matter.

💙 From Respite Guest to Part of Our Family

One of our respite residents first joined us for short stays — just a little extra support when needed. But over time, something special happened. Now, they don’t just come for respite… they come back to visit.

From popping in for lunch and dinner to joining us on Christmas Day, they’re always part of our community.

Stories like this remind us that what we do is about more than care. It’s about connection, belonging, and creating a place where people feel safe, supported, and loved 🤝

We’re proud to be a home where relationships last long after a stay ends. Because once you’re part of our community, you’re always part of it. 💫

✨ Weekly Wrap Up at Oakland Grange ✨

It has been a lovely week filled with music, lovely memories and special celebrations.

We had a fantastic time as the brilliant Ryan joined us with a great song that had everyone smiling and singing along. Music truly brings people together; lifting spirits and filling our home with joy. Thank you Ryan for such wonderful energy and fun!

We have also been reminded of the importance of one-to-one time. In a busy home, those quiet, personal moments make such a difference, helping our residents feel seen, heard and truly valued.

Nick returned with his skittles, and what a hit it was! There were plenty of strikes, lots of laughter, and some friendly rivalry as residents cheered each other on.

Thank you, Nick - we are already looking forward to the next game.
We celebrated St David’s Day with smiles, a splash of yellow and maybe even a daffodil or two, enjoying learning about Welsh traditions and sharing stories together.

And a very special highlight - a huge happy 90th birthday to Maureen! What an amazing milestone to celebrate.

Another week full of joy at Oakland Grange 💛

Our CEO, Kevin, represented us at the Health Connect Global Care Leaders’ Summit, joining industry leaders to discuss what’s working in social care — and what needs to change.

As part of the “Power in the Hands of Care Workers” panel, Kevin spoke about the need for fairer funding, better recognition for care professionals, and stronger support for the workforce.

He also highlighted the importance of changing how social care is valued — as essential infrastructure that supports the NHS and our communities.

We’re proud to see Kevin continuing to champion our sector and drive positive change. 💙

We're pleased to share that our teams at Oakland Grange and Oakland Court have completed training on Ayla – a new programme we're introducing to support residents living with mild to moderate dementia.

Ayla helps us deliver Cognitive Stimulation Therapy, which is a structured programme designed to support memory, thinking skills, and overall wellbeing. It's enjoyable for residents – involving conversation, games, and activities – while being grounded in clinical evidence about what actually helps maintain cognitive function.

Too often, cognitive decline is seen as something inevitable that simply has to be managed. We don't accept that. Where evidence-based approaches exist that can help protect cognition, improve mood, and enhance quality of life, we want our residents to benefit from them.

Our staff came away from the training confident, enthusiastic, and ready to begin. We're looking forward to seeing the positive impact across both homes.

If you have any questions about Ayla or how it might benefit your loved one, please speak to a member of the care team or contact the home directly.

✨ Weekly Wrap Up at Oakland Grange ✨

It has been a busy, joy filled week - packed with laughter, creativity and special moments shared together.

We had a flipping fantastic time at our Pancake Flipping Contest, with cheers and laughter filling the room. Trecia took the crown with an incredible 66 flips, closely followed by Terry with 63, what an egg-cellent competition! Well done to everyone who joined in the fun.

Our regular Resident Meeting gave everyone the chance to share ideas, feedback and suggestions - helping us continue to make Oakland Grange a wonderful place to call home. Every voice truly matters, and we love hearing what’s important to our residents.

Creativity was in full bloom during our flower arranging session, a very popular activity that filled the home with colour, beautiful scents and proud smiles as residents created stunning arrangements. We also tried something new with French knitting, where patience and new skills came together beautifully.

We were delighted to welcome the little visitors from Jiggle Wiggles, whose energy and giggles brought so much joy to everyone. Intergenerational moments like these are always incredibly special.

A huge highlight of the week was celebrating an extraordinary milestone - a very happy 103rd birthday to Win! A truly inspiring celebration filled with warmth and happiness.

Music and laughter continued with staff karaoke, revealing some surprise superstars and bringing everyone together for a fun filled sing along evening.

We ended the week with a wonderfully relaxing spa afternoon, transforming the Tudor lounge into a peaceful pamper space with scalp massages, foot soaks, and relaxation treatments. A big thank you to our amazing staff team for creating such a calming and caring experience - even our head chef Mi enjoyed some well deserved pampering!

Another fantastic week of celebration and smiles at Oakland Grange 💛

❤️ Weekly Wrap Up at Oakland Grange ❤️

It has been a week full of laughter and love here at Oakland Grange.

Pamper time brought plenty of smiles as residents enjoyed relaxing hand massages, fresh nails, gentle facials and hair styling. A little TLC goes a long way, boosting confidence and wellbeing - because self-care has no age limit and everyone deserves to feel special!

We shared lots of laughs during our jelly face challenge, with Kevin, our CEO, stepping in as the official judge! After some very serious deliberation (and plenty of giggles), congratulations to Pat for taking the win and well done to everyone who joined in the fun.

Music filled the home as Elvis “entered the building,” delivering a fantastic afternoon of classic hits and sing alongs. There was plenty of toe-tapping and smiling as everyone enjoyed the blue suede vibes.

Love was truly in the air as we celebrated Valentine’s Day together, creating beautiful hearts and cards. We loved seeing everyone get creative and celebrate in their own special way.

We finished the week with a cosy movie afternoon watching Twister, complete with tasty treats, great company and lovely family visits throughout the day. The perfect relaxing end to the weekend.

Another wonderful week of creativity and smiles at Oakland Grange 💛
