Charlotte Grange Care Home Visit from the Mayor!

Community Integrated Care’s Charlotte Grange Care Home in Flaxton Street, Hartlepool, held an Open Afternoon on Friday 10^th May to celebrate the completion of refurbishment work in the home following a capital grant from the local council.

The Mayor of Hartlepool, Cllr Allan Barclay, attended the event and was impressed with the home and its recent work, particulary the potting shed area, which gives residents who enjoy gardening a fantastic area for them.  

The home welcomed visitors, which included relatives and community organisations. They also welcomed pupils from the local primary school Ward Jackson who are regular visitors to the home, spending time chatting with residents and playing games.

The home was delighted that Siobhan Bookless, Contracts & Quality Officer at Hartlepool Council was able to attend the event, who was also delighted with the completed refurbishment work.

The care home is continuing to make improvements thanks to Olivia Springer, an art student at the local college who is volunteering at the home, working on some murals for the walls.
