The long-serving team at Asra House, an ‘Outstanding’ CQC-rated home (February 2022) for residents with an Asian lifestyle, are what makes this home really stand out. Speaking several languages, including Gujarati, Hindi, Punjabi, Bengali, Swahili and of course English, they are passionate about enriching the lives of their residents and celebrating every aspect of their cultural and religious beliefs.
The home-cooked authentic Asian cuisine at Asra House is a real highlight. Meat and vegetarian dishes are prepared by the home’s chefs in separate kitchens. Residents enjoy a vast variety of curries and daal dishes, with samosas and chapatis, served with home-made chutneys, raita and Indian sweets, every day.
Residents enjoy so many enriching activities, from traditional music, prayers and dancing to animal visits and laughing yoga. So many religious festivals are celebrated, and children from the local school often join in the celebrations.
There is a whole-home approach to activities and every day there is ‘happy hour’, where the team stop what they are doing and enjoy spontaneous activities with the residents.
The residents and their loved ones have a very active role in how their home is run, with resident and relative ambassadors. They support the manager with staff interviews and provide feedback to the team, many of whom have proudly been with the home for over 15 years.
Asra House also has its own minibus, to take the residents out on trips into the community, from the local park to temples and mosques.
The home has a beautiful secure garden leading from the main lounge, which is a beautiful space to relax in the summer with loved ones, who are welcome at any time. And the residents’ spacious bedrooms all have ensuite wet rooms.
The home also has a private Facebook group for family and friends, who can catch up with what their loved ones have been enjoying doing.

I cannot praise the care given to my father highly enough. He was very reluctant to move into a care home to start with, but he settled in quickly, and he was very happy and always smiling. The staff are absolutely amazing and are there for all your needs, both resident and family.

Thank you for your wonderful review! It's wonderful to hear how your father settled in quickly and was very happy at Asra House. Our team will really appreciate your kind words. Best wishes.

My mother has been at Asra House for 2 years now. She has vascular dementia, so she has some good days and some bad days but she is a strong-minded individual and generally very considerate with the staff. I am impressed with the Management team of the Home generally and the way the Home is run. As all of the Residents are Gujarati/Panjabi it is a credit to the staff that almost all of them speak Gujarati/Hindi/Panjabi and English, thus the Residents feel more secure and safe. The activities the Home provides are both religious/social based and are excellent coupled with the monthly Newsletter that is issued to the Residents' relatives. Any health issue encountered with the Residents, the relatives are notified at once and help is given to the relatives in dealing with the matter at hand. I regularly visit my mother and talk to my mother over the phone and have no problems with booking a room visit. The Residents are treated with dignity and respect. Generally, the Home is in a good clean state.
I'm so happy that my brother is getting good care. Especially the homely atmosphere. He is enjoying his life as if he is in his own home. The staff are so good and helpful. Always they are helpful and kind. They are keeping care on their hearts.

My mum has been at Asra for just over one year. So far, the family have only positive things to say. Asra care home is the best care home, in our opinion. Staff are just excellent in all aspects. Facilities are great. Food is like home cooked and very good.

My father was at this care home from 23/03/2020 to 20/04/2020. He was happy in the care home with their services and care that was provided to him. Unfortunately, he passed away on 20/04/2020. He was very unhappy at another care home and was treated badly there by the staff. As a result, he decided to move to Asra House Residential Care Home. My father and the staff at Asra House Residential Care Home communicated with one another very effectively. They also had banter with one another. As I mentioned earlier, my father passed away in the Care Home on 20/04/2020, but I spoke to my father and one member of staff in particular, the day before he passed away. My father's final words on the phone on 19/04/2020 were, "Don't worry about me, they are all looking after me here".
Both of my parents were resident at this home where they had spent the last few years of their life before departing us.

Both of my parents were resident at this home where they had spent the last few years of their life before departing us. They had a wonderful time and experience and were looked after by staff and management second to none. We would cherish all the memories while visiting parents regularly and very much appreciate how much effort the staff had put in to ensure their daily needs were met.

I cannot comment on cleanliness and rooms as I have not had an opportunity to review these. Asra House facilities provide safe accommodation and friendly service from the support staff. It seriously lacks services on maintaining the mental and physical well-being of the clients, a point which I have already mentioned. This, in my opinion, is an important requirement for the residents. There have been some improvements but patchy.
My mother has been here for one year. She has been cared for really well. She has improved a lot since she came here. She has made a few friends. She likes her food. The staff is very friendly and always welcoming with a smile.

the last five days of my stay here at Asra House has been a pleasant one. To highlight a few things, food:- very good, just like home-cooked (made) good for people who are convalescing. The very good management team who take special care of your wellbeing. Other teams who take and make a special effort are attending care staff, medical team dispensing medicine from time to time, cleaners etc. God bless all at Asra House.

Despite their very busy jobs they all seem to take the time to get to know residents personally and respond to their individual care needs. There is a strong relationship with families and staff have invited us on numerous occasions to eat at the home which is lovely. The food is of a very high standard. The environment always appears clean and tidy. Staff do their best to make residents feel at home as much as possible, which for me, is most important to our family.
Thank you so much for your kind words. Your feedback is truly invaluable to our team to ensure that the care provided at Asra House is the very best it can be. I will be sure to pass it onto the team. Best wishes, Fae.
