Castlecroft is a special place, where the team, residents and their loved ones work together to create a happy home that feels like an extended family.
There are resident ambassadors, who have active roles to play in how the home is run, from helping to interview potential staff, to providing residents’ feedback.
The team are passionate about enriching their residents’ lives, supporting them to do the things that bring them joy, giving them a sense of continuity and purpose. One resident is a fitness enthusiast, so the team created a gym for him, with his own equipment and some new additions.
Relatives are embraced into life at Castlecroft, and many are volunteering there. For example, several relatives created a vegetable patch with the residents, while others run singing sessions. There is also a private family and friends Facebook page.
Many residents love animals, so every week a member of the team brings in her family dog for them.
All the staff are actively involved in activities. Staff buddy residents who share the same interests, so activities are even more meaningful. For example, the maintenance operative discovered one of the residents shares his love of playing pool, so takes time to join him for games in home’s bar.
A group of male residents were chatting about how they loved cooking, so the ‘curry club’ was created. They go shopping with the team for the ingredients to make their own curries.
The home itself is beautiful, with spacious ensuite bedrooms, lounge areas and quiet spaces. There are landscaped gardens, where the residents enjoy growing their own produce, which they harvest for the chef to use in the kitchen. And mealtimes are a real highlight, with delicious home-cooked meals every day.

My mother moved into Castlecroft Residential Care Home when it just opened and my daughter was working there. We have recommended the home to many people of which some have referred their relatives and have been very happy with the home. The home is excellent including the food and staff. Everything is just amazing. My mother has been very happy there. Unfortunately, she is now coming to the end of her life. She is 100 on the 20th November and we hope she will make it. The staff has said she can end her days there instead of hospital and cannot praise the staff enough. They are wonderful.
A beautiful place with very caring people.

After finally finding a place here for my dad, I was so relieved. The staff are so friendly, helpful and at the reception I was made to feel welcome. My dad has been here a month and has settled down and looks 100% better than before moving in. He also feels that the care here and the food is fantastic and he can't wander off on his own and that the care he receives is fabulous.

Home manager Leanne Carter said: “Thank you for the lovely comments about my team. I am sorry to hear your view of our activities, as we have a fantastic activities leader who, alongside the team, organises a variety of individual and group activities, many of which your mum really enjoys. Our gardens are regularly maintained and the occasional piece of litter that blows into them is always picked up. If you do have any concerns please do come and see me as I would be really pleased to talk to you.”
Mom is now improving and would love to come back to the home as she found all staff meals and carers approachable and helpful.

I would like to thank all the staff for their care and kindness towards my brother during his stay, nothing was too much trouble.

My mother has been a resident at Castlecroft, Weoley Castle for 11 weeks. She had spent the previous weeks in hospital after a serious fall (broken nose, 2 broken cheekbones). Her previous care home would not accept her back because she was "a bad fall risk". Castlecroft accepted her and the care has been exemplary. She has continued to have falls, some more serious than others. The staff have always treated her with genuine compassion and consideration. She also has dementia which is taken into account by the carers. As a family we could not be more appreciative of the care she continues to receive.
Home Manager Leanne Carter said: “Thank you for your review and we are so pleased your mother has settled in so well into Castlecroft.

Home Manager Leanne Carter said: “Thank you for your review and we are so pleased your mother has settled in so well into Castlecroft. We always like to work closely with loved ones and families on our residents' care plans so when we were advised your mother was at high risk of falling we carried out the necessary steps needed to help keep her safe – from choosing a bedroom close to communal areas, fitting in falls sensors and liaising with health professionals.”
Also the care and support extended to myself and family.
Moving a close relation into a care home is a difficult decision to make, but I made the right choice.

The residents are taken good care of - it would be difficult to imagine a better standard of personal welfare - carers are always available and ready to help at all times.

My mother had a wonderful experience at Castle Croft. The staff team were amazing, dedicated, knowledgeable and very caring. They were very supportive to the family showing compassion and understanding. The management team have a lot of experience and lead the staff team by example. Mom loved the meals, cooked breakfast, afternoon tea and cakes and three course dinners. The staff were inventive with the activities they put on for the residents, from karaoke to pig roasts. It was hard finding a nice place for my dear mother but Castle Croft was the best decision, I have no regrets and thank them for their support and kindness.

Lisa was shortlisted as a finalist in the Great British Care Awards for the incredible things she does for Castlecroft's residents, enriching their lives and supporting them to do the things they love to do.
Castlecroft is like a second home to Lisa and she is often popping in on her days off, simply because she loves to spend time with the residents.

Nominated for a National Care Award this year, Tilu is a shining star at Castlecroft.

Nominated for a National Care Award this year, Tilu is a shining star at Castlecroft.
He is passionate about finding out everything he can about residents and their life histories, spending time with their loved ones too to discover everything he can about them, so he can provide the very best care.
A born leader, Tilu is an incredible mentor to his junior colleagues, showing them the right way to care and inspiring them with his positivity and his unwavering high standards when it comes to dignity and respect.

I love everything about Castlecroft – it feels like we are a family here. I treat the residents how I would my own grandparents – they are like family to me.
