Hallmark Care Homes recently celebrated the completion of its new home in Banstead, Surrey, with a grand launch event.
Banstead Manor, a 77-bed residential, dementia and nursing home on Brighton Road, welcomed over 100 people through its doors to celebrate the momentous occasion.
As part of the £8 million care homes’ special event, guests were invited to take a tour of the homes’ luxurious facilities, which include a cinema, hairdresser, therapy room and café.
At the home, each bedroom is elegantly furnished, has an en-suite bathroom and those on the ground floor have access to their own patio.
Other communal areas include an interactive kitchen where residents can assist in the preparation of meals and landscaped gardens designed by the late, award-winning landscape architect David Fountain.
The afternoon event, which was attended by local businesses and care professionals included a performance from a harpist and three-piece band and was culminated by speeches and a buffet lunch.
General manager at Banstead Manor Care Home, David Stallard says: “I am so proud to be part of the team who have grouped together and have made Banstead Manor the beautiful home that it is today.
“At Hallmark Care Homes we take pride in providing high-quality relationship-centred care to the ladies and gentlemen we support and I am excited to be able to lead the team here at Banstead Manor and encourage the team to continue showing the enthusiasm and passion that they have shown in the weeks leading up to this grand launch event.
“We hope to be a well-respected member of the Banstead community and I am excited to welcome our first residents into the home so they can experience the amazing care that I know we will provide.”
Managing director of Hallmark Care Homes, Ram Goyal, says: “I would like to thank everybody that attended the grand launch of Banstead Manor and all those involved in the process of creating this wonderful environment.
“We are looking forward to making the home a part of the community, where we can provide outstanding relationship-centred care to all residents.”
