"I recently moved my mother here, and within one week the change in her is remarkable.?She said in her own words that she feels so safe finally from where she was before.?The staff have been amazing at settling her in and now she smiles again every day."

Andrew W Bromsgrove (Son of Resident)

My mother was a resident at Hendra House for ten years until her death in 2018 at the grand old age of 97. She loved Hendra and thought of it as her 'home', surrounded by her family (staff). She was cared for with love, dignity and compassion. The level of care, high standard of food, hygiene and intense staff training, make it a superb establishment.

"My experience when visiting is one of seeing the residents happy and warm. The staff are friendly and welcoming, they are always ready with a drink of tea or coffee!! They will always explain what is going on with our uncle and what needs doing. Can't find anything to complain about at all. Well done."

Dr BF – Ludlow

"Superb care by all the team; housekeepers, catering staff, care providers, nursing staff, managers and maintenance staff. Everyone, without exception, is thoughtful, patient and kind. Welcoming to visitors and exceptionally managed for ongoing needs and developments. A real 'home from home', where individuals matter."
