Our new Marketing Suite had a very busy Open Weekend showing people our beautiful new home.   Our visitors enjoyed looking around the suites their loved ones can move into this summer, and were impressed with what they saw and what will be offering our residents.   

The Barchester hospitality team made a wonderful selection of home made cakes and drinks for everyone to enjoy over questions about the care we will offer and the delightful lifestyle in our home. 

Naomi, the Home Services Advisor said, “We were delighted to see so many people this weekend and finally meet them in person!  It is so important to continue to build  a great relationship with our clients, and we are looking forward to them moving in this summer.   Thank you everyone for coming to see us”.

Our Marketing Suite will be open by appointment five days a week.  Please do contact us to discuss your needs and arrange to show you around and the Elgar Court Team will look forward to meeting you.  Pictured from left to right are:  Kirsty Brook, Administration Manager, Naomi Steward, Home Services Manager, Liz Brooks, Deputy Manager and Sarah Cadwallader, General Manager of Elgar Court.

Elliott Hurst is super, super pleased to be the lucky winner of our Easter Bunny Hunt.

As you can see from the infectious grin on his face, he couldn’t believe the Chocolate Bunny prize was SO HUGE! We asked Elliott if he was going to save it for Easter, and he said “Why wait?!!”. Brilliant answer!

Enjoy your chocolate prize Elliott, and Happy Easter holidays everyone.

What an amazing weekend of three sell out performances of Navigating Margaret.

This heart warming and thought provoking play on living with dementia, gave us all an insight on how many families are living with this today.

The Q & A after each performance with the writer Helen Tennison,Jenny Davis from Arts Uplift, the actors and a representative from Age UK, answered questions from the audience such as ‘was it based on one person’ (it was), but also knitted in other experiences gained from ArtLifts ‘ Suitcase stories’ project of other people living with this condition.

Age UK discussed the help people in the Malvern area can seek (they cover Herefordshire and Worcestershire) and the support they provide from diagnosis to ongoing care available.

I supported and had the privilege of watching all three plays, which were a total joy to watch each time with incredible and seamless performances by the actors. Thank you so much for letting me be part of this.

It’s been a busy week here at Elgar Court as General Manager, Paul and Home Services Advisor Naomi continued meeting members of our local community, building long-lasting relationships allowing those living with us to thrive by staying connected and involved.

Firstly, Naomi visited the Local Skills Improvement Plan (LSIPs) breakfast meeting in Malvern led by Director, Robert Elliott of the Herefordshire and Worcestershire Chamber of Trade. The meeting brought together local businesses and regional colleges to discuss and understand how employers like Barchester, can shape the job skills for provision in the future.

Elgar Court have even been invited along to speak about the opportunities for successful careers within health and social care at their next meeting.

It was then onto some festive networking at Malvern Library with the Business and IP Centre (BIPC) national network led by The British Library, providing free and accessible business advice, support, information and resources that help independent businesses on their journey. Naomi met a number of local businesses at the event including coaches offering support around end of life grief and bereavement.

Paul and Naomi then paid a visit to Malvern’s community nurses to drop off some Christmas goodies to thank them for all of their hard work over the festive period before heading over to hand deliver some Christmas cards to our wonderful neighbours.
