Enjoy a meaningful lifestyle at Deewater Grange

Lifestyle Lead Nic Unsworth plans a range of activities so residents have choice, freedom and flexibility to do what they love every day, from quizzes and crafts to a stroll in the garden or even a race down a zipline.

A passion for care

After discovering a love for working in the care sector while volunteering as an Activities Assistant, Nic joined Deewater Grange, where she has since fostered a fun and supportive environment. There is never a dull day here, and residents enjoy a range of activities tailored specifically to their interests.

Our Lifestyle team supports residents to be who they’ve always been, shaping their care and lifestyle plan to suit their individual needs and preferences.

Making wishes come true

Spending quality one-to-one time with each resident is how our

Lifestyle team creates genuine human connections with residents, learning individuals’ likes and dislikes, as well as their memories and ambitions. Care UK’s Wishing Tree initiative encourages residents to hang a wish they’d like to achieve on a tree in the home. Wishes can be big or small, and they might involve trying something new or rekindling a favourite hobby.

Nic and her team have granted many wishes at Deewater Grange, including a surprise stadium tour at Goodison Park for two lifelong Everton Football Club supporters, and even a visit to Crewe Park for a resident who shared memories of visiting as a child. Nic even arranged for one thrill-seeking resident to take to the skies to ride the world’s fastest zipline!

Meaningful lifestyles

Deewater Grange is a hub of activity, but residents also love to get out and about - whether it’s a cruise along the River Dee or enjoying a classic pub lunch. Nic is often busy arranging outings on the minibus to visit favourite local spots, such as jazz night at the theatre or to visit exhibitions at local museums.

Busy trips out aren’t everyone’s cup of tea, so Nic and her team also spend quality time with residents on a oneto-one basis. By getting to know residents on a personal level – from their favourite card game to the way they take their tea – families can rest assured that no matter what’s on the agenda, Nic and her team will make every day fulfilling and fun.
