from W H (Resident) published on 11 December 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

Today I attended "arts uplift" which is an 1 1/2 hour class for the over 65's. It's an incredible space with a wonderful teacher have learnt so much. Tomorrow I will be there for a Tai Chi class which will give me a chance to help with my fitness. The cafe provides good food and drink at very reasonable

cost, great selection. I go to the the men's shed and am slowly learning how to operate things and make wooden items. It's a great place to be.

Mais House
from Anthony G (Brother-in-law of Resident) published on 12 November 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

From the moment I arrived to the time I left, every member of staff I met was professional, caring, and friendly. We had lunch in the dining room, and I met several residents who had "adopted" my brother-in-law and made him feel welcome. The food was excellent and properly cooked. The dining room staff

were all very friendly and helpful, and the service was prompt and attentive, better in fact than some supposedly good restaurants that I have patronised. I was impressed with the range of optional activities available, and the room was pleasant.

Reply from Susan Knight, Registered Manager at Mais HouseThank you so much for taking the time to share such a wonderful review. Were delighted to hear that you had such a positive experience during your visit. Its lovely to know that our team made you feel welcome and that your brother-in-law has settled in well and feels part of the community.

Were especially pleased that you enjoyed the meal and dining experience our catering and hospitality teams take great pride in providing freshly prepared, nutritious meals and friendly service.

Your kind words about our staff and the home environment mean a great deal to us, and well be sure to share your feedback with the whole team.

Review of
Dunkirk Memorial House
from Louise H (Daughter of Resident) published on 11 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Our mother was a resident of The Mews for the final 4 years of her life. We could not have been happier with the level of loving care that she received over this period.
My daughter and I searched for over 2 years for the right care for her. We do not live local to Taunton but reasoned that the right

Care Home was better than the most convenient Care Home. The moment we crossed the threshold of Dunkirk Memorial House we knew we had found the right place for her.
Over the years she was a resident we never doubted our choice. She and we, her family, were beautifully looked after.
Her final days were managed empathetically and calmly. We cannot thank you enough for making a difficult time for us all as easy as it could be.
Thankyou from us all for all that you do.

Reply from Eleanor Hallsworth, Business & Performance Manager at Dunkirk Memorial HouseIt was our pleasure to provide care for your mother, she will be greatly missed at Dunkirk Memorial House. Thank you for taking the time to review us and pass on your gratitude at what must be a very difficult time for you and your family.

Review of
Mais House
from S T (Wife of Resident) published on 14 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Dick came Mais House for a rest bite break.

As this was the first time for him to be away from me as his carer, he was apprehensive.

My sons visited him in my absence and always found Dick happy, though one occasion he was tired( this is normal for Dick as he sleeps a lot at home.)

He is difficult

to assess as with his dementia he is often very forgetful. My opinion is that he has been very happy though home sick and missing Daisy, our small dog.

We, the boys and myself have been impressed with all the staff, who although busy are friendly and very helpful.

Dick had a well found room with en suite with all he needed. All was spotless and I found was perfect for his privacy as needed.

Thank you Mais House for looking after Dick so well, it made a huge difference to my break knowing he was so well cared for.

He seems to have made a friend in Ron and he said he would like to come and see him.

Sue

Reply from Susan Knight, Registered Manager at Mais HouseThank you so much for sharing your kind feedback about Dick's stay at Mais House. We are delighted to hear that he was happy and well cared for, and that you were able to enjoy your break with peace of mind. It's wonderful that he made a connection with Ron and felt comfortable in his surroundings. Your words mean a lot to our team, and we are grateful for your recognition of the care, friendliness, and dedication our staff provide. We will continue to ensure Dick-and all our residents-feel safe, supported, and valued. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience. We look forward to welcoming Dick (and perhaps a visit to see Ron!) back to Mais House in the future. Kind Regards

Review of
Galanos House
from L B (Daughter of Resident) published on 10 October 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

1. Inquiry - RBL Galanos House, was welcoming, answered my questions, felt safe and listened to.
2. Application - process was clear and exceeded my expectation. It covered eligibility, the forms 'This is me' and 'accessibility' were so goof to have mum voice.
3. Visit - mum was nervous, but this

disappeared instantly with the welcome, friendliness and your which exceeded her expectations. Liz, our guide respected and talked to mum all the time. It felt safe and mum noticed that as she was shown around. The pace of the tour was at mum's pace. No rushing and answered all questions with knowledge and passion. Residents, maintenance man, carers and others all spoke to mum using her name and it felt like a happy place but more than that it felt like a special community. It was a personal visit, thank you for making it special. Before leaving mum met Sarah, deputy manager, who like everyone focused on mum and her experience and asked if mum has any questions? Just the one; 'when can I move in?' - two hours and a life changing experience of which as her daughter was wonderful to hear - she made her own decision and I'm so proud of her but I'm also so grateful to all the staff at Galanos House.
4. Transition - Assessment for mum's care and accessibility was thoughtful and thorough. Mandy, thank you. Moving day was special, having lunch with mum in the restaurant helped us all. Mum's room looked great. The furniture was set out well, and we loved helping mum unpack as so many residents and staff popped their heads in to say hello to mum, wonderful. The online financial set up was easy.
Visiting mum is wonderful, she has a voice and is enjoying herself and the staff, careers and new friendships are special already. I'm so proud of mum and so grateful to RBL Galanos House and all the staff. Mum lost her soul mate, my dad in May this year, and now in September she's not alone and in a wonderful community. Thank you xx

Overall Experience

I am very grateful to the lovely, kind staff at Mais House, Bexhill , who are looking after my dear father-in-law so well.
He has been visiting Mais House for respite care over the past three years, but has now become a permanent resident.
The staff are always so helpful, patient and kind to all

of those in their care. There are lots of activities for the residents to join in if they so wish and The Link area is such a nice place for them to sit.
I've joined my father-in-law for lunch there on several occasions and it's like a five star hotel! There's always plenty of choice, the portions are just the right size and the food is delicious and homemade.
Thank you for all you are doing.

From the moment Mum was assessed to the moment Mum passed, every single person we dealt with was fantastic. We felt heard and cared for by every member of staff. Mum's palliative care was exemplary and she was made so welcome. She was kept clean and comfortable at what was a very difficult time for

the family and Mum. They always had time for her and treated her with dignity and respect right to the end. The wonderful team laid her out beautifully. Thanks so much to one and all x
