We would like to thank you for your kindness to our relative. It was such a comfort to know you were looking after her and were so caring for her. We were so pleased to meet you a few weeks ago and you are clearly so devoted to your job and so understanding to people’s needs. We cannot thank you enough.

Relative of a resident, December 2021

Thank you to everyone for looking after our mum. Thank you for the amazing time and care you gave, we could not have wished for mum to be anywhere else. I will never forget the great time spent with her in the dining room and café, and the lovely chats and laughs with you all. Thank you to every single one of you.
