I pop in to see my dad most days. As soon as you walk in, there is a homely feel. All the carers are very professional with their safety standards and fantastic with the residents. Nothing seems too much for them, always offering to help. They also join in with the many activities that go on both inside the home and the weekly outings that residents look forward to. The location is fantastic, a stone's throw away from the coffee shops and ice bars that residents can enjoy, mind you with such an excellent chef there's no need to eat out ! I'm so much more relaxed now knowing my dad is in good hands! Thank you, everyone at Poplars!

Creating enjoyable social events is an important part of our care philosophy, and it's wonderful to know this one resonated with you and our residents.
Your kind words about our staff truly mean a lot to them. Their dedication to ensuring both residents and guests feel welcomed and cared for is at the heart of what we do. Seeing our team members dancing and enjoying themselves alongside residents is exactly the atmosphere we aim to foster one where everyone can relax, have fun, and create happy memories together.
Events like these are valuable opportunities for our residents to engage with their families and friends in a relaxed, celebratory setting, and your feedback confirms we're getting this right.
Attended the bbq on 8th August. Had a lovely time. The residents looked like they were having a great time. Music was great. Carers really got involved. Lots of nice food. Even got up and had a dance.

Thank you Rowena; we are delighted to host social events for both residents and families to enjoy. Franz is a wonderful singer and the music has always encouraged dancing. We appreciate your positive feedback which we will certainly cascade to the Poplars team.

This visit was my Dad's second stay for respite care at Poplars Care Home. The staff are all so welcoming, friendly and caring. Having spent 2 weeks at Poplars earlier in the year, my family knew that he would be very well looked after. We were pleased to see that he was happy to engage in daily exercises and activities and that he looked very smart. That was always so important to my Dad! The 2 week break gave him the opportunity to be stimulated by different surroundings and for my Mum to take a break from his care. We will probably need to arrange respite care again in a few months and we will not hesitate to contact Poplars when the time comes.
We are delighted to hear that both your Dad and your family had another positive experience with us. Really pleased to know that he enjoyed participating in our daily exercises...

Our friend seems very happy and, although inclined to be lazy, is encouraged to move around and participate in activities, especially the "keep fit" exercises.

I began volunteering at Poplars care home in June of 2024, as I wanted something meaningful to do while being at home from university. Before I started, I received an introduction and had a brief tour of the home, and I immediately felt really welcomed. I volunteered to help out for the duration of the summer until I went back to university in September. I helped on trips to the local shops, cafe and to the local Lido, while also helping with bingo, quizzes, and exercise, and just generally keeping residents company. I then returned to Poplars care home for the following Christmas and Summer, as I enjoyed my experience so much. I honestly feel like part of the Poplars family, and I'm so grateful to have had the experience to volunteer here and make a difference to the residents' lives.
Thank you so much Caitlin for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and heartfelt review of your volunteering experience at Poplars Care Home. We are truly grateful for the time, enthusiasm, and kindness you have given to our residents since joining us.

There is a lovely atmosphere in the lounge and residents are treated with kindness, patience and understanding by the staff. The one-to-one care my sister received was outstanding.

I am extremely satisfied with mums care since day one.
The staff at all levels are very considerate, caring & respectful.
It's never an easy decision to put a loved one into care. But it was the right time for mum & us a family.
It's more like a home from home really. Nothing clinical looking about each room beautifully decorated to a high standard.
High standards in washing mums clothes, bedding.
General housekeeping excellent.
Food good selection/variety. Constant tea available mums main demand in life.
Activities & days out great fun. Myself & my sons have often found ourselves in a game of Bingo or an afternoon out to a local cafe with mum.
They step up the care when needed accordingly say if mums not been well.
They are like my extended family now.
The care & guidance for relatives & residents is 2nd to none.
I looked at several homes locally & Poplars stood out by a mile for all the right reasons.
Absolutely 100%

My mum passed away on 16th July 2025 after living for two years at Poplars and I couldn't have asked for a better place for her. She had a spacious, well-decorated room with a private bathroom, and the home was always spotlessly clean. The food was excellent and thoughtfully tailored to each resident's preferences.
Staff were consistently friendly and caring, and the atmosphere was genuinely happy-residents were engaged, supported, and clearly content. Mum loved the daily activities like painting, card making, and gentle exercise, as well as regular outings to local cafés and picnics in the area. The garden was a particular highlight-beautiful and well-kept.
Mum made wonderful friends and often said how lucky she felt to be there. I'll always be grateful to Poplars for making her final years so happy and for looking after her with such care and kindness.
Thank you Sue for taking the time to share such a touching and thoughtful review.

Thank you Sue for taking the time to share such a touching and thoughtful review. We are deeply sorry for your loss, and we feel privileged to have been a part of your mum's life over the past two years. It means so much to our whole team to know that Poplars felt like a safe, happy, and supportive home for her. Your kind words about the staff, activities, meals and environment are truly appreciated - they remind us why we do what we do. Knowing that your mum felt happy, engaged and cared for is the greatest reward we could ever hope for. The garden won't be quite the same without her, and we will always speak of her with fondness. Thank you for trusting us with her care.With heartfelt sympathy and gratitude, The Poplars Care Home team

I wanted to give a fulsome and heartfelt 'thank you' (enormously) for all the help, care & support you gave both to my mother, Lady Joan, who was resident with you for 2 and a half years, and to us as her family in terms of liaison and support.
Joan was far from the easiest person to look after & care for but all your staff and management showed & demonstrated curiosity (about her) and huge imagination in best catering for her needs throughout, from the outset to the very end. It was an enormous relief for us all that you took great care in seeing & learning how best to support & care for Joan. Despite Joan's challenging behaviour, you took the greatest care for her, which (as you saw) meant she ended up trusting you implicitly: no easy feat for anyone dealing with my mother! You also demonstrated superb care for her & for us in her final week, essentially capping beautifully a time when you took as many worries away from us. Thank you!
Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a heartfelt and thoughtful message. Your words mean a great deal to all of us at Poplars. It was truly an honor to care for Lady Joan and to support your family throughout her time with us. We understand that every individual has unique needs, and...
Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a heartfelt and thoughtful message. Your words mean a great deal to all of us at Poplars. It was truly an honor to care for Lady Joan and to support your family throughout her time with us. We understand that every individual has unique needs, and we are so pleased to know that our team's efforts to provide compassionate, personalised care made a positive difference for Joan and for you. Your acknowledgment of our curiosity and imagination in meeting her needs is deeply appreciated-it reflects the values we strive to uphold every day. Supporting families during challenging times, especially in the final stages of life, is something we take very seriously. Knowing that we were able to ease your worries and earn Joan's trust is the greatest reward we could hope for. Thank you again for your kind words and for entrusting us with Joan's care. Please know that your message will be shared with the entire team-it will mean so much to them.

The best part of my role is the residents; I will always make time to chat. I am passionate about learning more about how they want their care and the service to run. I also enjoy seeing the Poplars team working towards common goals.

I joined Poplars in November 2021. I decided that after working in the logistics business for over 25 years I needed a change of direction. I wanted to work in a job where I could use my organisational, analytical, and social skills to support people and Poplars has been the perfect choice.
The best part of my job is being able to spend some time during the day to have a chat with the residents at Poplars or join in one of the daily activities, which makes the sometimes very busy days very worthwhile.
My challenge has been to learn the procedures of what is required to work in a care home and to move out of my comfort zone and learn new things. No day is the same.
I was looking for a job where I would arrive at work with a smile on my face and leave with a smile on my face and I’ve found that at Poplars.
