My wife and I can't speak highly enough of the care our elderly friend and neighbour received over the past year in The Anchorage. She has now moved on to a nursing home for care due to a serious fall. The staff at The Anchorage are excellent and their constant care. Consideration and cheerfulness is second to none. Plus the lovely food served every day and cups of tea etc throughout the day, even for visitors. The games and other interesting things going on are available to all the residents and are generally well attended which encourages them to mix well.
There was no entertainment provided as the officer responsible was on leave the week I was in residence.

Overall we have been pleased with the care, attention, general cleanliness, qualify of food and activities provided. The management listens and the staff are friendly and helpful. The overall ambience is good and residents do not sit around in a circle looking at each other, but have three pleasant, informal seating areas and the grounds are lovely, especially in the warmer months.
Difficult to imagine how the standard of care and the accommodation could be bettered very civilised and professional. Visitors also speak favourably. We had the recommendation from a recent long-term resident.

Everyone seemed to do everything, especially at meal times. No-one came up to me to inquire as to my well-being during my visit. Treated very well by staff generally. I drink Earl Grey tea, no milk or sugar, and provided my tea bags, but the message didn't always get through.

My mother has just spent 2 weeks respite care at The Anchorage. She had a wonderful time, making new friends, being looked after and feeling safe and secure. The staff were all fantastic and always there to help if needed. Whilst my mother feels she's not quite ready yet for residential care, she is keen to return again later in the year for a couple of weeks.
I have nothing but gratitude for the way they looked after my wife. She improved so much she came home. Although I had a care home nurse every day in April and May she had to go into the Petworth nursing home on June 1st. She passed away on 18th June after just 30 days.

My sister went into The Anchorage and the first thing that struck me was how friendly the staff were and the cleanliness. I said to my sister "It seems like a hotel more than a care home". She is very happy there. The food is excellent and the care is first class.

We were given a warm welcome when we first arrived at The Anchorage Care Home to undertake an initial assessment. This is run to excellent standards by well trained staff, who treat the residents with care, dignity and respect. The premises are well maintained and the food is excellent. Considerable attention is given to providing the residents with entertainment that is appropriate to their needs, and also the staff maintain efficient working relationships with local healthcare professionals. I can thoroughly recommend The Anchorage Care Home.
It is comforting to know my aunt is very well looked after by everyone at her care home. She remains happy and I have every confidence in the care she receives.

I had not visited many care homes prior to needing one swiftly to aid my mother who needed respite after a fortnight in hospital. Having looked at several I was relieved to find the Anchorage in the staff were so welcoming to me and instantly I felt supported and that my mother would be treated with respect and kindness. The home exceeded my expectations everyone was patient, kind and professional. The meals were delicious the cleanliness in the rooms and in the general areas were faultless and fresh, and I can say my mum has returned home, refreshed, happy and healthy after all of the wonderful care she required.

Sam began her career in care at the age of 18 in a nursing home in Petersfield, where she discovered just how rewarding it is to make a genuine difference in people’s lives. Since then, she has built extensive experience across a wide range of care settings, including nursing, residential, mental health, domiciliary, and private care. Each role has shaped her skills, knowledge, and passion for delivering high-quality, compassionate care.
Although Sam explored other career paths when her children were younger, her heart always led her back to care. She believes in investing not only in residents, but in their extended families too, building strong, lasting relationships that continue long after people move on.
As Manager at The Anchorage, Sam is proud to lead a dedicated team and to help create a warm, welcoming, and supportive environment where residents feel valued, and families feel included and reassured.
Known for her positivity, Sam often shares her three guiding principles: you only know what you know; communication is key; and there is a solution to everything. She feels truly honoured to be part of The Anchorage and is passionate about making a difference every single day.

Karen’s career has always centred around Customer Care; nothing is more rewarding to her than ensuring people feel truly valued and supported. With over 20 years of experience as an Office Manager, she has developed the confidence and communication skills to navigate even the most challenging situations with professionalism and empathy.
A devoted animal lover, especially of dogs and cats, Karen shares her home with Milo, her very affectionate (and undeniably handsome) cat who never misses a chance to remind her of it. She has also shared the last 16 wonderful years with her partner, Kevin. The two first met during her time working as Cabin Crew at Gatwick Airport, a role that revealed just how much she enjoys connecting with people from all walks of life.
Outside of work, Karen can most often be found at Boot sales or Antique fairs. Together, she and Kevin love camping, walking, or bird spotting in Pulborough Brooks whenever the opportunity arises. They also enjoy a touch of nostalgia: one of her closest friends hosts regular 80s nights, and dressing up for her favourite era is something Karen looks forward to every time.

As Customer Liaison Manager, I support families in one of the most important decisions they’ll ever make, finding the right home for their loved ones. I guide and support each care enquiry with compassion and professionalism, ensuring every family feels heard, informed, and confident in their choices.
In addition to my work with families, I also oversee our marketing and advertising, helping to showcase the heart of our homes and the care we provide. I’m a people person at heart, and I’m proud to be part of a business that shares my core belief: life does not end with a dementia diagnosis. Our homes are places to continue living with dignity, joy, and purpose.
Dedicated and deeply passionate, I’m here to help, no question is ever too much.

Daisy is an 11-year-old community champion who has been visiting The Anchorage care home since she was a toddler. A few years ago, she created Through the Eyes of a Child, a heartfelt initiative designed to capture children’s honest reflections on their experiences of visiting the care home, helping staff and residents see the environment through a child’s perspective.
What began as a simple idea has grown into a meaningful programme that fosters intergenerational connections. Daisy encourages children from local schools to visit the home, building friendships with residents and taking part in activities, events, and outings. She has also developed feedback forms to ensure children’s voices are heard and valued.
Over the past year, Daisy’s compassion and dedication have been widely recognised. She has received a Champions of Care Special Recognition Award from Person Centred Software, the Community Cup from her school for her empathy and service, and the Saxon Weald Local Community Youth Winner Award for her outstanding contribution to the care home and wider community. She is also due to join the PDCCA Volunteer Friends Scheme in the New Year.
Now beginning to share Through the Eyes of a Child with other care homes across the group, Daisy continues to lead with kindness, empathy, and maturity beyond her years, proving that age is no barrier to making a meaningful difference.
