Having lost the constant face of our country, our Residents paid their respects with dignity and grace for all to be seen to celebrate Her Majesty The Queen.

A royal thank you Ma'am

With Beatrice lamenting: “She will always be in my heart” and Veronica referencing her ‘impeccable dress sense’ we celebrated the Queen with dignity. Jackie recalled how Queen Elizabeth was dependable and loyal, and an emotional Jean proudly told us that she was just one year older than her, and so they grew up together

We’re delighted to have been accredited with the National Gold Standard Framework Award. This landmark is in recognition of our compassionate care team’s ability to deliver high-quality end-of-life care. Each Resident is treated with respect and dignity.
