The whole family are really impressed with this newly opened care home. Activities aren't limited to the activities coordinator playing games/singing songs. All staff are encouraged to be involved. My Mother in law, who has Alzheimer's disease, loves to help the housekeepers and carers; she likes to do 'normal things' e.g. fold socks, empty the dishwasher, lay the table, help in the garden. Of course, she also enjoys playing games, singing, dancing. This care home does all these things for her. She started visiting as daycare and is now in ongoing respite which will probably be permanent. She is so happy there. Any minor teething problems were dealt with quickly and not ignored. We couldn't be happier.
My father moved to Edwardstow two weeks ago and I am very pleased with the care he receives. Independency is very much encouraged. Lovely atmosphere, beautiful well-furnished rooms. Wonderful caring staff, well managed, cannot recommend enough. My father has settled in very well.

My mother with advanced dementia who will be 83 this month has had all the care and attention and provision for her that we could wish for. Being a new home is obviously a plus, all modern, up to date facilities etc. The newly thrown together staff team are working well.

He began his career with the Trust as a cook at Edwardstow before progressing to Head Chef. During this time, he was part of the team that helped the home achieve an Outstanding rating in Responsive, an achievement he is incredibly proud to have contributed to.
Matt then took the next step in his career by moving into care, becoming Deputy Home Manager before progressing to General Manager in 2024.
He is passionate about making a positive difference to the lives of the people he supports. His leadership style is centred around encouragement, empowerment and helping others to recognise and reach their own potential.

Sue started working for OSJCT in 2008 and is the Head of Dementia Care at Edwardstow Court.
Initially, Sue started as a Carer at Jubilee Lodge before being promoted to Care Leader in 2010. When Edwardstow Court opened in 2018, Sue made the move across and has been part of the Edwardstow family ever since.

I have worked in the catering industry for the past 12 years, starting as a pot washer and working my way up to head chef in a local pub, then moving into catering for members at a local golf club before moving here to Edwardstow in September last year.
I started here as a cook and have recently been promoted to head chef. I would say my favourite part of working here is being able to provide quality home-cooked meals for our residents, especially those living with dementia, as mealtimes are often a special time in their day and I am committed to making them memorable with meals that they enjoy, and the feelings that it can evoke are something words can’t describe.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family, especially my younger sister, niece and nephew, as well as watching all sorts of sports like football, horse racing, darts and American football.

I have worked at Edwardstow Court since the day we opened in March 2018. I first worked as a care leader, and now I work in the housekeeping team, which I enjoy as I am still able to interact with the residents and families.
This is my favourite part of my job; I like to make a difference to someone's day. I have previously worked at Specsavers making glasses for customers. I have been married to my husband for 46 years, and we enjoy holidays in the sun. I also enjoy spending time with my beautiful grandson and granddaughter.

Caroline is one of our Activities and Wellbeing Co-ordinators, and a part-time Administrator at Edwardstow Court.
Regular engagement in activities and meaningful occupation can improve cognitive function, increase mood, and even enhance physical health for residents, especially those living with Dementia.Activity Co-ordinators are vital in facilitating these opportunities for social interactions as well enabling residents to pursue or even learn new interests and skills.
Reflecting on her time at Edwardstow Court so far, Caroline said: ‘My journey at the home started as a Housekeeper in August 2024. The desire to have more interaction with the residents has led me to pursue my current role’
The caring and creative characteristics needed in her current roles come naturally to Caroline.‘I have always had a caring nature and try to be helpful where possible, now I can put both qualities into my work to make a real difference. Working on reception enhances my relationship with the families and being part of the activities team allows me to enjoy a full schedule of meaningful activities with the residents.’
Outside of work, Caroline enjoys spending time travelling with her partner and children. She also enjoys partaking in an afternoon or going to themed fancy dress events with friends.
