A home that cares, not just a care home

For over 20 years we have worked with amazing people every day. From those who choose to live with us and their families, to our care home staff and our head office team, we are all united in our aspiration to live life in colour.

We provide the safety and sanctuary of a warm and welcoming home but refuse to accept that moving into residential care means life becomes grey and dull.

Underpinned by our values of Compassion, Aspiration, Respect and Engaged (C.A.R.E), we are committed to providing the highest quality of care, with plenty of opportunities to flourish and have fun along the way.

We champion those generations who paved the way for us and respect the fact that they still have a meaningful contribution to make to society. That’s why we are the exact opposite of what you expect from a care home. We live life in bright, unashamed, everlasting colour!

Never ones to miss out, don’t be surprised if you bump into Mark, our CEO, chatting to residents, or one of our Board members joining the day trip out – it’s this commitment to seeing what’s happening day to day that helps drive continual improvement and keeps us grounded in care.

As a not-for-profit organisation, we reinvest any surplus money into the services we offer, to serve the best interests of our residents and their families. We have no shareholders to pay and no need to charge any more than is necessary to provide the outstanding care we aspire to achieve every day.

Our Vision
