My mother was a resident of Leah lodge for 4 months before death on 5th September. She suffered from dementia and all members of staff were fantastic to her and catered for all her needs. They looked after her and cared for her in a very sympathetic way. I would recommend Leah lodge to anyone who is looking for special care for dementia.

My relative has been in Leah Lodge for a few months. He seems well cared for and the staff are friendly and supportive. The facilities are well set up and we have enjoyed being able to sit in the outside space in the summer.

Mum joined leah lodge end of February 25. It had been a very tough decision,because our wish was that she could continue living in her own house. However we were pleasantly surprised how quickly mum was settled. RELATIONSHIPS: Mum has a good relationship with the staff . They are very caring. There is some lovely banter going on between residents and staff. I come to the home very often and i have observed that the staff is extremely patient,friendly and affectionate with the residents. PERSONAL and MEDICAL CARE: The staff takes very good care of mum checking her regularly for cleanliness and comfort. Mum does not have any bad smell on her whatever the time we visit. The staff seem to be attentive to mum's eventual medical needs. They are prompt to communicate if something happens. They have raised SG for a DTI.when even her personal doctor had not. They made sure that mum was visited by the doctor and district nurse as necessary. They are approchable to us the family.

My mother has now been at Leah Lodge for 21 months & I can't speak highly enough about it. The environment is VERY comfortable-the staff are caring & friendly-the food good & activities extensive. We visit regularly as live nearby & always find it welcoming & enjoyable. An excellent choice for a care home.

In 2024 I started searching for a safe place for a 90 year old lady who was no longer able to look after herself in her flat. I have lived in Blackheath for 40 years and set the bar high to find the right care home. When I visited Leah Lodge the search ended.The staff listened, respected and understood our needs. My many questions were all answered. Within a few weeks a well appointed room was offered. My friend was delighted. Our requests have been listened to as needs have changed. A caring place where one is greeted by name, a smile and offered help if needed - nothing seems to be too much trouble. It is loverly to take her to the coffee lounge for a drink and delicious cake despite her becoming a little muddled and in clothes she has been helped choose. A good choice of well cooked meals served in the dining room with friends made within the home. Leah Lodge has certainly looked after my needs. I am sure they will continue to respond to her changing needs. Well done to all.

My Uncle has lived here for many years now and calls it home. He has Alzheimer and they are fantastic with him. The food is nice and the facilities are really good. We are so grateful to know that he is safe and happy day to day.

My Mum has been in Leah Lodge for about 18 months now and I'm very happy with the care and attention she is receiving. The staff are marvellous with her, as well as being helpful and responsive to any concerns raised. The medical care she has access to is also excellent and I feel my Mum is in the best place she could be.

Leah Lodge was our choice after visiting several other care homes in the premium category and we are still happy with that choice four years later. Every staff member I've ever met has been lovely. They are very conscientious about reporting any little bruise or blemish, which is a great comfort. The rooms are a little on the small side but they are comfortable. As to value, I believe the price is in line with the industry, but it is extremely expensive and has risen far beyond inflation.

I visit my uncle with my mum on a fortnightly basis. Both my mum and uncle have dementia so we have entertaining conversations. My mum is always comforted that my uncle is well looked after and staff always update me on how he is doing. The staff at Leah Lodge are always so kind and caring and I know my uncle is well looked after. They know his needs and his love of chocolate and cake so I know he is happy!

My mum moved into this care home in February 2025. She is at the advanced stage of vascular dementia and alzheimer's. To be honest, I creid all the way in the taxi when bringing her to the home, while she remained calm. When she arrived she was so pleased to see so many smiley faces and was welcomed by all. For me, no care home is good enough for my mum, and in my visits I keep a close eye on as much as I can. 9 months later, I have to say, it was the right move. The environment in Leah Lodge is peaceful - like a small private hotel. Nicely decorated and it does not have 'that smell'. My mum and her surroundings are kept clean and she seems very happy. I imagined having to bring her proper food on my visits, but the standard of catering is very good. I know it is tasty as I taste it. Finally, I cannot fault the staff looking after my mum. They are kind and friendly, and I have come to appreciate that they do not put on a show when I visit. That's great.

My uncle has been at Leah Lodge for several years and I thoroughly recommend it as he has been very happy throughout. The staff treat him so well, they respect his wishes at all times, and they are unfailingly kind to him and to us when we visit. There is always a good atmosphere and my uncle feels completely at home, part of the family there. I am kept up to date with all the events organised, trips out, etc, and regularly updated if he has seen the doctor for any reason. He was very ill last year and the staff were so quick to act and get treatment he came through as physically well as ever. As a family we have complete confidence that he is happy and well cared for at Leah Lodge.

My brother-in-law has been resident at Leah Lodge for a few months now.and they have looked after him extremely well. As his decline continues they have been attentive to all his needs and have ensured that he gets needed medical care while still providing opportunities to engage with others to the limit of his capabilities.

My short period of respite care proved to be very helpful and supportive. The staff made every effort to provide the special diet and I needed for all my meals at that time. Visitors were made very welcome, and it was good to be ale to have tea and cake with them in the little cafe.

My dad has been at Leah Lodge 6 months now, and we are very happy with the care he has received. The medical care he has access to is excellent, and the individual attention and support he has received since moving in are really great. The staff are informally kind and attentive, and my dad is as happy and secure as we could ask for.

My father was taken into Leah Lodge Care Home after a fall at home and my mother struggled to care for him at home. He was 94-year-old. I was very apprehensive about Care Homes, but Leah Lodge were fantastic. Dad had dementia and the way the staff encouraged and included him in activities and outings brought him out of himself. The staff are marvelous and I would definitely recommend the whole team. Well done and thank you Leah Lodge.

I cannot speak highly enough of Leah Lodge and its staff. My mum, who has moderate Alzheimer's, moved in a month ago. We were both worried about this big step as she had been living with me and my family but we really needn't have been. The staff were so supportive throughout the decision-making and moving-in process and Mum settled in quickly. She is very happy in her new home and enjoys the activities, especially the outings (she has been to a local school, to church and Gardens) and has already made a couple of friends! The staff are caring, positive and friendly and always willing to listen however busy they are. The best thing for us as a family is that we can relax knowing that Mum is so well looked after and it's great to see her living her own life again having been so dependent on us. We love visiting her at Leah Lodge, sitting in the cafe having tea and cake or relaxing in the beautiful garden. It's such a warm and welcoming atmosphere!

I am super happy with the care that Leah Lodge provides for my mum. Mum moved into Leah Lodge in Oct 2024 and she has done nothing but thrive. All the staff are not only caring but lovely and helpful, nothing is too much trouble. She joins in with all the activities and when they go out on days out she has a great time. It has been a great relief to know that mum is in such wonderful hands.

Dad arrived following a hospital stay and in the late stages of dementia for end of life care. He is being wonderfully cared for by all the team who are kind, thoughtful, helpful and caring. We feel that dad could not be in better hands.
