Residential care home The Grange is opening its doors to six new residents following the completion of a £230,000 extension and refurbishment backed by Santander Corporate Banking.

The home's owners, Barrie and Jo-Ann Chambers, purchased the three star rated, 30-bed home in Sandiacre, Nottinghamshire in March last year. Following the refurbishment the home is now able to offer 36 beds, mainly en-suite, and a larger sitting room for guests. The Grange specialises in residential care for the elderly.

Barrie Chambers, home owner, said: "We are delighted to be able to offer six additional high-quality beds for our residents. This will help ease our waiting list and will enable us to offer rooms to friends and family of our existing residents. Working with the team at Santander has been pleasant and rewarding. They really took the time to get to know our business and their sector expertise proved invaluable."

Mark Lawson, Relationship Director at Santander Corporate Banking in the East Midlands, said: "It's great to see the fully refurbished home ready to receive new guests. At Santander Corporate Banking, we are committed to building strong relationships based on a deep understanding of businesses and their needs and finding the right financing solutions to fit those needs. Our relationship with Barrie and Jo-Ann Chambers is a perfect example of this and I look forward to a long and successful working relationship."
