Bramley Court

Bramley Court takes the high level of care throughout the residential, nursing and dementia services it provides very seriously.

This is the home’s forte and testament to this is being classed in the top five per cent of care facilities achieving the Butterfly Service Home kite mark across the country. This qualifies that the dementia care Bramley Court provides is second to none.

The stylishly-decorated accommodation spread over three floors has a homely and welcoming feel, with a variety of spaces for social interaction and quieter areas to reflect.

The personable care the 65-strong team delivers is what makes the home so outstanding. Staff are dedicated and compassionate in everything they do, which means residents feel loved, warm and comfortable at Bramley Court.

The best thing about what I do is making a difference, whether it’s for the residents, their families or our staff. Matthew Cox, Home Manager

Life at Bramley Court

The purpose-built home enjoys a variety of facilities, which include an on-site hairdresser and external services like visiting therapists and chiropodists.

SONAS therapy is very popular at the home, which is an innovative technique that evokes the senses through a series of one-to-one and small group sessions. The effect it has on residents is a dramatic one, particularly with dementia sufferers. They are more responsive, alert and engaged.

The home has close links with the local community and the many events the home holds, like summer fetes or 1940s days, are also open to the community. While, residents enjoy visits from local talent like entertainers and fitness instructors.

  • Dear Maureen, 

    I have written an official letter of thanks to Bramley Court via Matthew to let him know how privilidged we feel to have had Mary placed at Bramley Court. 

    I am very grateful to all the staff on Cherry Unit but I particularly wanted to thank you. I saw how skilled and kind you were to Mary but I also appreciated the time you took to acquaint me with what was happening. You gave me great support and confidence. Thank you. 

    Yours ever,
