Meet the team

Every day our colleagues live our values of passionate, caring and teamwork to empower residents to enjoy fulfilling lives.

The dedicated and experienced team at Glastonbury Court will provide your loved one with care that is completely tailored to their individual needs and wishes.

I’m passionate about great dementia care. My father had Alzheimer’s and I cared for him for three years. The experience taught me so much about communicating with people living with this condition – knowledge that’s been very helpful in my work here.

I love chatting to the residents and listening to their life stories. Hearing them laugh is the best medicine! There’s a fun, supportive atmosphere at Glastonbury Court and the team are passionate about positively impacting residents’ lives. We work well together.

It is a lovely atmosphere. The workers are all nice. I have known many for a while and it is a nice friendship.

Relative of a resident, April 2021

Thank you very much for looking after my Grandma. I know it took her a while to adjust to losing her independence but realised that she was in the best place and well looked after. It was also a relief for us to know she was safe.

Relative of a resident, March 2021

Thank you all for the great care and kindness you gave to my mother. Mum loved being with you and it was a great weight off my mind knowing that she was happy and looked after so well. This last year has been particularly difficult for you all, which makes us even more grateful to you for your continued care and support towards her.

Relative of a resident, March 2021

We want to express our most sincere and heartfelt appreciation to everyone at Glastonbury Court for their devotion and brilliant care afforded to Peter. It has meant so much to us knowing you were there for him and looking after him so very well. We really do appreciate everyone’s exceptionally hard work.
