Downham Grange<br />
State of the art, loving care in Downham Market<br />
Welcome to Downham Grange Care Home, a striking new<br />
purpose-built development in Downham Market.<br />
We provide meaningful person-centred exceptional care for those in<br />
need of residential, respite, nursing or dementia care.<br />
Boasting 62 en-suite bedrooms, the home has<br />
been finished to the most luxurious standards,<br />
with extra-wide corridors, a variety of large<br />
spacious and comfortable lounges and dining<br />
rooms with kitchenette areas that help to promote<br />
independence and social inclusion.<br />
The home has been designed to meet the needs<br />
of people who require nursing and dementia<br />
care. This exciting new development meets our<br />
Kingsley care ethos, responding to individual<br />
needs and providing the highest standards of care.<br />
Like all Kingsley Healthcare Homes, our care is<br />
focused around each person’s individual needs and<br />
wishes. We value and respect how each person<br />
chooses to spend their day.<br />
Our strong ethos of person-centred care runs<br />
through everything we do. Our staff are all highly<br />
experienced and receive on-going training to make<br />
sure that we deliver only the very best quality care.<br />
We really want to make a difference<br />
to the lives of the people we care for.<br />
With this in mind we have built the<br />
home to the highest specifications,<br />
giving particular consideration<br />
to making the design and layout<br />
suitable for people living with a<br />
dementia.<br />
This new home will enable us to<br />
continue to provide high-quality<br />
surroundings and environment. It<br />
will ensure our staff deliver quality<br />
of service and improve the quality of<br />
life of our residents every day.<br />
The staff at Downham Grange go<br />
that extra mile to make the home<br />
feel comfortable and relaxed. We<br />
like Downham Grange to feel like<br />
a ‘home from home’. We encourage<br />
people to take part in the daily living<br />
activities as well as other ongoing<br />
activities that take place throughout<br />
the day.<br />
“It took me just a few<br />
days to feel at home<br />
because the staff are<br />
so welcoming and<br />
caring”<br />

From the Mayor’s Parlour<br />
I had the pleasure of going to see Aladdin at Stanley’s this<br />
month, it was a very good show, Stanleys’s is a good venue<br />
for plays or shows and it was nice to see it being used again.<br />
I have attended a number of events as Mayor this<br />
month including the opening of the Mart in King’s Lynn,<br />
where we paraded down the high street in King’s Lynn,<br />
with lots of other dignitaries and the sun shining all the<br />
way. As Town and District Councillor I have attended 32<br />
meetings and 4 visits to see people at home.<br />
The MUGA and Skate park projects are going to start<br />
to be built in April, Days field is being advertised for<br />
sale. The next main projects for the Town are the<br />
refurbishment of the Buttercross and the Toilets.<br />
Talking about the toilets we have had more incidents<br />
of vandalism and mess inside which has to be dealt<br />
with by Town Council staff, not a nice job, so if you<br />
see anyone doing this in the Town please call the<br />
Police as this behaviour is costing us all money.<br />
The War Memorial has had an uplift, the bricks<br />
around the base have all been replaced and<br />
repainted, our thanks to Balfour Beatty and Travis<br />
Perkins for completing and sponsoring these works.<br />
The neighbourhood plan is now in full swing, 5 groups<br />
have been set-up and some have met. If you would<br />
like to join any group, please call in at the Town Hall.<br />
The Market has a new auction which has been very<br />
busy over the last few weeks, come and have a bid it<br />
starts at 11am on Saturdays. The Market Committee<br />
has also been considering several ways to update<br />
and improve the fooall of our market and Town<br />
Centre. New ideas include a car boot section in the<br />
pit and looking at the layout of the market. There may<br />
be more opportunities to have an indoor market in<br />
the Assembly rooms on a Saturday and the shops in<br />
Plowright Place will be organising events in the year<br />
with stalls and entertainment in that area. All these<br />
initiatives will make <strong>Swaffham</strong> Town Centre an even<br />
more interesting and pleasant place to shop and visit.<br />
