The Rectory Care Home is a multi-award-winning provider of specialist residential dementia care.
The highly trained and compassionate staff provide person-centred care and support to people living with dementia, empowering them to retain a good quality of life with maximum choice. Care plans are built around the unique needs, preferences and goals of each individual and regularly reviewed to ensure the best possible support.
The Rectory is a beautiful period home that has been tastefully extended while retaining a bright, homely interior and garden. Each of the 25 bedrooms can be personalised as much or as little as residents wish (the home can provide furniture or residents can bring their own) and many feature ensuite facilities.
Situated on a corner where two leafy residential streets meet in Taunton, Somerset, the Rectory is an active part of the local community. Visitors are warmly welcomed and accommodated, including children and pets. Residents can socialise or host visitors in the home’s own safe and cosy pub, The Cock & Bull. The Rectory also hosts social events and residents enjoy regular trips out and about.
Additionally, local people are welcome to take part in the packed programme of activities. Residents can choose from boat trips, Flexercise and dancing, or relax with home baking, a variety of crafts or watching live musicians. The schedule is built around residents’ wishes and interests so there is always something for everyone.

Abbie joined us in July 2023, having started in the care sector 20 years ago as a school-leaver and working her way through every role up to Registered Manager. She’s a passionate believer in continuing professional development and being well-informed about developments in the care sector.
She says: “The thing I love most about my job - and in particular about working with people living with dementia - is making a difference to their quality of life and, most importantly, making them smile.”Abbie has two children and three dogs which keeps her super busy when she’s not at work, and in her leisure time she loves to read and bake.

Philip is the third generation of the White family to run the family’s care homes. He joined the family business in 2003, after taking his A-Levels, working his way up from washing dishes to his current position as operations manager.
He says: "At the heart of the care we provide is our commitment to providing a relaxed and nurturing home-from-home environment for our residents and ensuring they retain a genuine connection with their friends and families and local communities. This is what makes our homes special and our work so rewarding.”
In his spare time, Philip plays golf for Somerset and the South West of England and enjoys spending time with his wife and young family.

Bonnie is responsible for overseeing all three of our homes, supporting the managers and helping ensure overall quality, systems compliance, new care planning and supporting governance principles.
She joined us in 2023 after a decade with a specialist dementia care home in Wellington, first as clinical lead for dementia care then as deputy manager.
She says: "Working in care is one of the most rewarding things you can do: knowing it’s in your hands to deliver the best quality of life for your residents and enjoying the variety of a working environment where no two days are ever the same."
A mother of two, Bonnie enjoys spending time with her children, her extended family and her dogs.
