Special celebrations as Wharfeside care home officially opens

TV presenter Martin Roberts has officially opened the doors of Wharfeside care home in Otley, joined by the Town Mayor, Councillor Linda Hoare.Group of people stood in front of a balloon arch

Martin Roberts met with professionals from the local community on Tuesday 18 October for a special launch event. We will be welcoming new residents to the newly built home in November.

Located in Westgate, the state-of-the-art care home offers first class person-centred residential and dementia care and is purpose built to provide a safe and comfortable environment for residents. Set in luxurious surroundings, Wharfeside has 66 ensuite bedrooms and a wealth of on-site facilities including communal outdoor spaces, a coffee shop, bar area and hairdressing salon.

The TV presenter enjoyed a tour of the home after raising a glass to Wharfeside care home and cutting the ribbon to mark the care home’s official opening alongside our Managing Director of Care Services, Rob Martin.

Martin Roberts said:

Many congratulations to everyone involved in opening Wharfeside care home. I think residents will truly feel at home here.

It’s been great to speak with people from Anchor and the local community. It’s clear that residents will be welcomed into a vibrant community and welcoming space where they will receive thoughtful, individualised care.

On the opening of our newest care home, Rob Martin, Managing Director of Care Services, said:Two people walking down a corridor

We're delighted to open this new high-quality care home. Located in beautiful surroundings while still being close to Otley’s town centre, Wharfeside is a welcome addition to the care provision in the area and with nearly 60 years of experience in care and housing, all of us at Anchor look forward to welcoming new residents to this magnificent space.

This exciting addition to our care home portfolio demonstrates we are progressing the growth strategy set out in our Business Plan to create more and better homes where people can love living in later life and to create more opportunities for people to find a fulfilling career working in the social care sector.

To commemorate the opening of the new home, Leeds North West MP Alex Sobel planted a tree in the home’s garden on Thursday 6 October with assistance from children from St Joseph’s Primary School on Manor Square and Anchor’s Executive Director of Development, Oliver Boundy.
 
The three-storey care home built by LNT using the latest energy efficient technology has an Energy Performance Certificate A rating. Over 80 per cent of the roof is covered in solar panels and onsite battery stores retain any spare energy produced. In addition, the home benefits from extensive ground source heat pump technology which provides hot water and heating and enables residents to benefit from underfloor heating and comfort air cooling technology.

Wharfeside care home will replace Teal Beck House care home and residents and colleagues will be moved to the new location. Equipped with modern facilities, the new home has been built to meet the needs of today’s residents and the residents of the future. 

Shelley Seghetti, Team Leader, has worked at Teal Beck House for over six years. Upon seeing the new home for the first time, she said:Group of people standing in front of a balloon arch entrance

I fell in love with the home the minute I stepped inside the door. From the views, the beautiful rooms, the spacious communal areas, it’s amazing. 

I can’t wait for the residents and the rest of my colleagues to see it. I’m sure they will love it as much as I do. We’ve made lots of memories at Teal Beck House care home and I look forward to making many more in this wonderful space.

Wharfeside is now recruiting for various positions, including care assistants and domestic and kitchen support, to join the established care team from Teal Beck House. Every new colleague will receive comprehensive training and professional development opportunities and can expect all the support they need to make the most of their career. We also offer a wealth of benefits designed to boost wellbeing and support colleagues.
