Community spotlight: Highfield Grange

Tucked away in the sought-after area of Maybank, Highfield Grange is more than just a collection of bungalows – it's a thriving community where independent living and connection go hand in hand.

Since opening its doors in 1975, Highfield Grange has provided a welcoming home for people over 55, with 31 purpose-built one- and two-bedroom bungalows set around a friendly cul-de-sac.

At the heart of Highfield Grange is the communal building – a lively hub where neighbours gather for everything from social events and exercise sessions to shared meals and a friendly chat over tea.

The communal lounge hosts a variety of activities, and with a kitchen, laundry, and shared parking, day-to-day living is made easy and sociable.

The location couldn't be better. Customers enjoy the convenience of Maybank's local shops, cafes, and amenities, with Newcastle-under-Lyme and Stoke just a short trip away.

For those who love the outdoors, beautiful parks and country spaces like Brampton Park, Silverdale Country Park, and Apedale Community Country Park are all nearby. Golfers and football fans are well-catered for too, with several clubs and the Aspire Stadium close at hand.

But what truly sets Highfield Grange apart is its strong sense of community. Here, neighbours look out for each other – whether it's lending a hand in the garden, sharing a meal, or simply enjoying a chat. With the support of a Community Living advisor and a calendar full of activities, residents can make new friends, pursue hobbies, and enjoy a fulfilling lifestyle – all while maintaining their independence.

Highfield Grange is a shining example of how independent living schemes can offer so much more than just a place to stay.

It's a place where everyone is welcome, connections run deep, and community spirit thrives.
