Welcome to Forrester Court

At Forrester Court care home, we provide high quality care in a happy and relaxing home close to central London.

Our care home in Paddington, London, provides residential, dementia and nursing care on a short-stay (respite) and permanent basis. We get to know your loved one, learning about their unique experiences, interests and memories and getting a sense of what makes them special. We then use these insights to create personalised care and lifestyle plans that enable them to enjoy a fulfilling life with as much independence as possible.

Each of the bedrooms at Forrester Court is spacious, with en-suite facilities, stylish furniture, a television connection point and a 24-hour nurse call system. We also offer premium rooms, offering an extra level of comfort and facilities. The home has comfortable lounges as well as an activity room, hair salon and even a tea room.

Forrester Court is officially a ‘Veteran Friendly Framework’ accredited care home, recognising our best practice and highest standards of care for the Armed Forces community.

We pride ourselves on the transparency of our care quality and fee information - ensuring you can trust us to care from that very first step.

What others have to say

Here are just some of the comments we’ve received from family, friends and residents at Forrester Court care home.

The place is immaculately clean… beautifully presented and safe. When you enter, people greet you with a smile and make you feel welcome… they always say hello. They often call to make sure we are happy with everything and when we visit they are always available to speak to us about our loved one. The food is freshly prepared each day, they try to cater to our loved one's individual tastes as much as they can.

Relative of a resident, March 2024

They have all of my loved one's best interests at heart. She sometimes exhibits challenging behaviour and they cope with it exceptionally well… they are very empathetic and sincere. They encourage her to do what she is capable of doing and assist her with anything she needs help with. Her personal hygiene is well looked after, and they notify us if she needs anything. They are very kind and make us feel welcome whenever we visit.

Relative of a resident, March 2024

I visit my loved one often and the care that he receives is very good… when I visit, he is happy and more often than not he's laughing. All the staff know him, they accommodate all his needs, they listen to him and allow him his views on things... they are kind, courteous and they respect him for the person he is.

Relative of a resident, March 2024

It's a lovely home. I go once a fortnight to see my mother in law. The staff are polite and very friendly and she seems very well cared for.

Relative of a resident, August 2023

My relative is very happy with the staff care.
