About The Company


We are a family-run business providing quality residential care homes and support services to older people and those living with dementia.


We built our first residential care home in the early 1980s when we noticed that many care homes were set up in old converted buildings that didn't always lend themselves to meeting the wide-ranging needs of those with age-related difficulties or dementia.

We built the home brick by brick to create first-rate, safe and homely accommodation in a community setting.


Since those early days, we have grown our business in order to meet the need for first-class, quality care and support for our ageing population.

We now have four residential care homes for older people, Pendle Brook, Coniston House, Royley House and Bank Hall. We specialise in catering for the needs of those with dementia as well as offering a fantastic daycare service, flexible respite care facilities and a home car
