We have more than 120 care homes throughout England offering everything from supportive residential care to tailored dementia care enabling the older people who live with us to enjoy day-to-day life as they wish.

Always here to help

We know that finding the right care home for either yourself or a loved one is about much more than just the care itself; it’s about relationships, it’s about peace of mind, it’s about good food and good friends; above all it’s about feeling as though you are at home.

Our care

We understand the value of maintaining your independence and that dignity and choice are important. Our care homes are committed to providing person-centred care to meet individual needs and strive to ensure we always provide the right type of care, for the right person, in the right location.
