Meet The Manager
Chris White is Home Manager at Woodfield Grange Care Home.
I have worked in care for 27 years, 20 of these have been at manager and regional manager levels for local authorities, private and 3rd sector organisations.
Being at Woodfield care home is a real pleasure. We have an amazing and well-established team here and I am proud to be part of it, the engagement with our residents by the staff is lovely to see, and epitomises what real care and support should be.
At Woodfield Grange Care Home in Halifax, we pride ourselves on delivering excellent person-centred care for Residents. The friendly team here work tirelessly to offer 24/7 residential and nursing care, as well as respite and palliative care. Each Resident is an individual, and we want to support them to lead the happy, active life they choose.

It’s just under 4 miles to the town centre, and the local bus runs every ten minutes, which makes it fuss-free for visitors to get here. It’s also in easy reach of the Halifax Royal Infirmary.
