The Applewood in Milton Keynes has officially opened its doors and welcomed its first residents.
HC-One’s new 78-bed home was opened by the Madam Mayor of Milton Keynes, Councillor Marie Bradburn, and local MP for Milton Keynes North, Chris Curtis, who met with members of the care team before enjoying a tour of the new home.
Guests attended tours of The Applewood’s facilities – which include a café, hair and beauty salon, cinema, and a private dining area for family celebrations – and enjoyed a refreshments menu specially prepared for the opening by The Applewood’s catering and hospitality team.
Ana-Maria Cormos, home manager at The Applewood, said: “I am beyond proud that we have officially opened the doors of The Applewood. The journey to this moment has been incredible, and it wouldn’t have been possible without the dedication, passion, and hard work of our amazing team.
“From day one, this incredible group of professionals has shown unwavering commitment to creating a warm, welcoming, and caring environment for our new residents.
“As we welcome our first residents, we know they will feel right at home thanks to the heart and soul put into making The Applewood a special place. I am confident that the team will make a huge difference in the local community and enrich the lives of the residents living at The Applewood.”
