My brother has been in Bickerton House Care Home for nine weeks respite care. During this time, his health and well-being have improved significantly. He gets on well with the staff who are very friendly and caring. The home is always very clean and feels very safe. The residents are well looked after. He is only leaving here to be closer to his family.

The staff are so friendly and went out of their way to introduce themselves to Mum on her first day. She’s been in the garden every day which she loves. She is making friends and is so much brighter and happier. They have so many facilities available to the residents and lots of activities. The menu is varied and the tables are laid out beautifully which encourages mum to eat and be social. I love the individual Memory boxes outside each room where mum has put some of her treasures, and her precious photos have been put on the wall so it feels more like home. It is a very hard and distressing time, placing a loved parent into a care home but seeing mum happy again is worth it.
At Bickerton House we set a high standard for ourselves, so we are very pleased to hear that your mum is enjoying the garden, the food and that her overall experience with us has been a positive one.
I was very happy and thought...
I’m so pleased she’s being cared for so well, I would highly recommend this home.
Many Thanks, Bickerton House team.
I recommend Bickerton House Care Home to anyone looking for a care home for themselves, relatives or friend. I use to be a live-in carer for one of their residence. The lady I was caring for, her health had deteriorated, she had to be assessed by a social worker and after the assessment they...
They have organised a a zoom for me to speak to my lovely lady, they do lovely meal good choices.
Many thanks, Bickerton House team.
We had looked at a number of homes for Mum to go into for respite and Bickerton was top of the list. Mum settled very quickly and enjoyed her surroundings and accommodation. She became fond of a number of carers who looked after her very well and for this reason, she came on in leaps and bounds due...
I found the management to be extremely helpful, caring and the process was simple to get Mum moved there. I would highly recommend Bickerton House.
At Bickerton House, we set a high standard for ourselves, so we are very pleased to hear that your mum felt safe and content with us. We are also pleased that the overall experience was positive for you too.

My mother has been a resident of Bickerton House since the beginning of this year. She needs care and help with everything and I can't praise all the staff enough for their round-the-clock care, their expertise and their kindness in everything they do. The carers keep her very clean and are so nice with her while washing or bringing her meals and drinks etc. Due to my mother's frailty and age, she needs help with everything and that help is always there. It has relieved myself and family of so much stress.
Although my mother was initially very reluctant to come to live in a care home, she has settled really well and is very happy. She has formed friendships with residents and strong bonds with many members of staff. She also joins in with many activities, which she did not have the opportunity to do...

Mum, in her 90s, moved into Bickerton House two months ago, having previously been living independently in Suffolk. The move had to take place quite quickly and was understandably stressful but the staff, who are lovely, kind, caring people, have been brilliant in helping mum settle in, making her feel welcome in her new surroundings and keeping me informed. She has a lovely bright room, tastefully decorated, which we have been able to personalise with her own belongings, pictures and furnishings. Mum really enjoys the freshly prepared meals and the activities and facilities within the home, e.g. hair salon, cafe, garden, etc. give her variety and choice in how she spends her time. She has made new friends, is happy and no longer feels so anxious and worried about what the future holds. I would thoroughly recommend Bickerton House to anyone considering residential or respite care for a loved one.
We needed to find a care home for mum and dad quite urgently following both of them being in hospital over the summer. The staff were extremely helpful in the initial process, showing first me and then dad around the home and describing some of the lovely events that are organised for residents....
We needed to find a care home for mum and dad quite urgently following both of them being in hospital over the summer. The staff were extremely helpful in the initial process, showing first me and then dad around the home and describing some of the lovely events that are organised for residents. Dad was very pleasantly surprised at what a modern care home looks like having his own mother's experience as a reference and was happy to give it a try! Bickerton House staff have been as one caring, kind and extremely supportive in settling both mum and dad into the home. It is clear in walking around the home with mum and dad, that the staff know them well and are keen to create as comfortable an environment for them as possible, nothing has been too much trouble. Mum and dad are loving the meals, the exercise classes, socialising with other residents and of course the coffee shop and treats! Thank you for all you are doing Bickerton House, it is a great relief to know they are in such caring hands!
We were in the fortunate position of our mum deciding herself that she needed extra care. We looked at many homes in the Berkshire area but, as soon as we had seen Bickerton, we knew it was the right place for Mum. They have not disappointed us in any way. The home itself is modern, clean and still...
We couldn't be more thankful to everyone there.

A very big thank you to everyone at Bickerton House who has worked so hard to make my mum feel at home there. It's always very difficult choosing a care home for a loved one, especially one aged 95 who was very against the idea. Bickerton House has proved to be a wonderful choice due to its excellent facilities and the kindness and dedication of all the lovely friendly staff. Bickerton House is a very happy place and wraps its arms around you and makes you feel you belong. My mum has been there for 10 weeks now and is very settled and loving it there. I can relax knowing she is safe and well looked after. I would thoroughly recommend it.
Everyone always has a smile and welcomes...
My friend that I visit is often having a one to one chat with one of the carers, they always have time for the residents and nothing is too much trouble.
From the beginning, the staff at Bickerton showed great care. They’re good at keeping us informed and the relationship works well. It...

A complete change of lifestyle cannot be easy for a 90-year-old lady, but nonetheless, my aunt is settling well into Bickerton House and accepting that this is now her home. This is entirely due to the care she has received in trying to accommodate her needs. I know that staff members have sat with her and gone through photo albums with her for example. Just last week a cruise style lunch was put on for the residents with an invitation to the Captain's Table. Looking at the photos, a great deal of care went into preparing for this occasion, and I know my aunt was really looking forward to it. Comments and suggestions are always replied to and actioned promptly. Thank you to all the staff for their hard work.

The staff are wonderful and the facilities are excellent. It gave me complete peace of mind he was being looked after while my husband and I took a short break. I cannot praise the home more - it is superb.

After a long year and struggling to find somewhere suitable for my mum, who has early-onset dementia, we found Bickerton House. From the moment we enquired they could not have been more helpful, everything was explained so well by the staff to us with regards to moving a relative in during Covid. Mum has settled so well and loves all the activities provided. Visits are well organised and nothing is ever too much trouble for the staff. Communication has been excellent so we know exactly how Mum is doing. Overall, in very tricky times, we couldn’t be happier with the service and care provided. Thank you Bickerton team!
My experience of Bickerton House care home was amazing. Very clean and tidy. Staff are excellent in their service. An amazing place to have comfort and peace of mind for the residents. I would recommend to anyone.

As Home Manager at Bickerton House, the most important part of my role is to make sure residents feel safe.
A big part of what I do is supporting my team. In particular, helping them navigate the healthcare sector which is always growing and developing. With that in mind, you also need to be well-organised and approachable. It helps that I can draw on my 15 years of experience and level five qualification in leadership.
When I first joined Care UK, I did so because its ethos reflected my own values and beliefs. A career highlight for me is the fact I have been able to work my way up through dedication and learning. Now, I feel proud to be part of a strong team that I have also helped grow. For us, it is about celebrating each other’s achievements and seeing how we can do even better.
Every day is different, but my favourite part is being able to spend time with residents and their families. I love finding out about their lives, getting to know them and listening to their wealth of knowledge.
Outside of work, we are an adventurous family and enjoy road trips and holidays. Having a very sporty son also means we spend a lot of time out and about supporting his activities.
