Care Homes Owned by Lilian Faithfull Care Charity in Gloucestershire

My wife has Early Onset Dementia and we were recommended this facility by several medical professionals. She loves attending twice a week. The staff are so friendly and attentive that my wife feels that she is among friends. Meals are very high quality and my normally fussy eater frequently enjoys seconds. I recommend Secret Garden without hesitation.

I couldn't recommend the Secret Garden hub enough!

Mum came to St Faith's to receive end of life care following a short illness. Whilst mum was only with you for a few days, the care, compassion, respect and dignity she received was nothing short of exemplary. She and we were made to feel welcome and part of the St Faith's family immediately and throughout her stay with you. I literally can't praise the home + staff highly enough. Thank you so much for making mum's last few days as good as they could be.

Faithfull House gave my mother a great 101st birthday. Her bedroom and a small lounge were decorated. She was given a pamper session beforehand and looked very smart with a new hairdo, painted nails. She was dressed in her smartest clothes. All of Pauline's family were greeted and given tea, sandwiches and cake. Pauline was given a card signed by all the staff and a beautiful cake. Thank you to all the staff

The Secret Garden provides a safe, cheerful & very kind base for my wife for 5 hours on one day of each week. The staff & helpers are welcoming & thoughtful, & they offer a programme of events that keep those attending involved & interested. Coffee, tea, biscuits & lunch are all available, & my wife enjoys the discussions & activities. The centre is a great help for my wife & myself; thank you.

The staff at The Secret Garden are extremely caring. I know my mum is in very good hands when she visits twice a week. The activities and the food are enjoyable. We are very grateful for such a caring and safe place. Thank you to all the lovely team.

My mum has lived at Faithfull House since April and I have been very happy with the care she receives. Her room is lovely and she is well looked after by a kind and friendly team.

I was particularly impressed when Mum recently celebrated her birthday. As she loves music and dancing, I liaised with the Activity Co-ordinators to arrange a little party. Annie and Kirsty went above and beyond to make it special. Her room was decorated, her favourite music was playing and staff came in to dance with her. She was then presented with a birthday cake with her name on it and a card signed by all the staff. She was so touched that she became quite emotional.

now has so many more people around her who know her, care about her and want her to be happy.

I write in praise of Mark, Hannah, Carol, Linda & Sue's care of my Mum Breda. They create a dementia oasis which is like a home from home for Mum. Better than home in fact because here she is well fed, stimulated with conversation & genuinely happy. Despite mid-stage dementia she is far more conversant and with-it after a day at the Secret Garden and refers to everybody there as her friend. What greater satisfaction and reward can there be for the loved ones?

After 2 hours visiting my long standing friend Sheila, I was saddened to see her as she was but amazed at the facilities and staff at the day care centre. Although Sheila found most things difficult to understand or carry out, the staff were so encouraging and included her the best they could. The atmosphere was amazing and I can't praise the staff enough. Thank you for doing the best you possibly can for my lovely friend.

The Secret Garden is a very friendly day centre to go to. I felt very welcome here and there was always a conversation going on which you could be included in. the staff are very welcoming and caring. The staff treat the visitors in such a friendly manner they love coming back for another day. I hope this place never fails

I have attended the 10 year anniversary of the secret garden today with my father, may I say what a great day it has been. From the entertainment and the food has been exceptional, how the staff look after Dad and the other residents is very caring and considerate these sessions certainly make a great difference to Dads wellbeing as well I am sure they do to everyone else that attend. May a say a big Thank you to Mark and the team. Here's to another 10 years and beyond!!

My Mum has been coming on a Monday to the Secret Garden for nearly a year now. I can honestly say it's been the best thing for her. She loves coming and chatting to everyone. She enjoys all the activities and benefits from them so much. The staff are all so caring and lovely. And she enjoys a delicious meal. Would definitely recommend the day care centre.

My Mother comes alive again with the kindness, energy and professionalism of every single member of staff who come into contact with her.

Inclusive, kind and dignified.

The kindness shown to me and my family at Royal Court is helping us all navigate through a difficult time for us.

We don't feel alone any more.

Many thanks to all who care for my Mother xxxx

The Secret Garden Day Care Hub is a warm and friendly place with a kind and dedicated staff. My husband was made so welcome and enjoyed his days at the Hub. He was treated with respect and dignity by a caring staff and enjoyed all the various activities they arranged. The facilities were excellent in every way and in a lovely environment. As a carer I felt very supported too and the staff were always available to help or talk through any issues. I felt welcome to stay for tea/coffee and be part of the community

My parents have recently started attending The Secret Garden. I cannot thank the team enough from the onboarding part at first to now the have settled I cannot thank everyone enough. My parents really enjoy going and it has given me reassurance that they are safe and well looked after enabling me to carry out my work commitments. Staff have great interactions and really want to support everyone and give them an enjoyable visit. It's a really hard job and they are kind, caring and keep smiling !

I will start with two quotations, one from my husband who attends Secret Garden, "It is the place where I feel the safest" and one from our grandson on pick-up, "I have never seen Poppa so happy." This is a testament to the caring staff, who recognise the individuality of each person, each being treated with dignity. There is a warm and welcoming atmosphere, a sense of fun, a diverse range of activities and a "jolly good lunch!"

we would like to say a heartfelt thankyou to all the staff at the day centre for the kindness, compassion, and dedication you show him every wednesday. The care and support you provide to my father n law has been exceptional, and it gives our family peace of mind to see a smile on John's face. Here's to many more wednesdays at the day centre. Nicki.

My mum who has dementia has been attending The Secret Garden for the last few months until Mum needed to go into a care home. All the staff at the Secret Garden (both male & female) have been absolutely wonderful, I cannot sing their praises enough. They are so kind & caring and very helpful. I cannot recommend the Secret Garden enough! They were so lovely with my mum, wish I had found them earlier! A big thank you to all the staff.

Sian had attentive care during her time, The home adjusted her table at meal times as she requested. Her room was very suitable.

Thank you for taking such great care of my sister-in-law by allowing her into the Secret Garden whilst she had her respite care with a care home for 3 weeks. We could go on holiday knowing she was going to have fun, fab, cheery company and lots of activities and be safe. The building and garden are just perfect as she loves being outdoors and is game for any quiz and activity. Thank you always for enchaing her already great zest for life despite her disabilities.
