A purpose-built home in a leafy neighbourhood
Here in our spacious and attractive home, we help each resident to settle in quickly and make friends. We want each person to feel at home and enjoy their life to the full.
Great places to socialise, enjoy an activity or have quiet time
Our ‘one family’ approach means that friends and family are always welcome – whether popping by for a coffee with a loved one, wanting a chat with our staff, or joining in with a meal or activity.
Lovely peaceful bedrooms
All rooms have en-suite WC and shower, some have their own patio, many have garden views, and all have flat-screen TVs.
Pretty gardens
With a summerhouse, patio seating, and raised beds we make it easier if residents want to do a bit of gentle gardening.
Guest suite for family stay-overs
Family are able to be close to loved ones at critical times and can even use the space just for an hour or so, if needed.
There’s no typical day at The Links, but we arrange plenty to do, both here at the home as well as out and about.
Exploring creativity
We help residents with flower-arranging, gardening, arts and crafts, and baking.
All aboard
Our minibus really helps with trips out around the local area.
Nursery visits
The local nursery children come in every week to spend time with the residents and do activities with them.
“Mum has been a resident at The Links for over seven years and she is very happy there. She is well looked after and all her needs are met on a day to day basis. The home is very friendly and has the needs of the residents at the heart of all they do. The staff and management also offer good support and advice to relatives at difficult times which I experienced last year. All the staff in all areas of the home are just wonderful, caring people and I highly recommend this home.”
Daughter of resident, 15 June 2020, carehome.co.uk
“My father has been at The Links since 2013. We chose The Links over other providers due to its reputation, facilities and the to end of life care offered, as we do not want to have to move my father due to his dementia and any resultant upset this would cause him. All staff are excellent being both professional, friendly and caring. The facilities offered are excellent. Lounge areas and gardens including a vegetable growing area available to residents. The rooms are spacious, light, clean and kept that way with daily cleaning. Staff call me promptly if anything happens to/or father requires anything, clothes etc. Management are proactive and prompt lockdown action has meant no Covid-19 at The Links. Due to Covid-19, my regular visits have been put on hold but I am able to see and speak to him as The Links have arranged virtual meetings. During Covid-19 The Links email every so often with general updates about what they are doing to entertain the residents.”
Son of resident, 03 June 2020, carehome.co.uk
