Our care homes are different.

They are places of passion and purpose, of connection and excitement, somewhere to fuel the imagination and to spark an appetite for life.

At Renaissance Care we have created a joyful, dynamic community where wellbeing is prioritised, and life is celebrated every day. 

What does wellbeing mean? To us, it means improving all aspects of our residents’ lives – physical, emotional, spiritual and practical. It means uncovering their passions and providing meaningful experiences to inspire and engage them. 

Our Wellbeing Leads construct inventive experiences and activities to surprise and delight. Your loved one could find themselves mixing cocktails or cheering on their favourite football team, exploring the world using virtual travel technology or planting bulbs in the gardens. The choice is always theirs. 

This resident-led method encourages everyone to enjoy independent living in our safe, supportive environment. With inspiration and interest, we keep minds active and spirits high.

Continue the Life You Enjoy

Our role is to support residents to continue with the hobbies and interests that matter most to them. Whether you enjoy daily activities such as reading, gardening, or spending time with loved ones, or you're looking for adventure with day excursions, we will support you to live as happily and as independently as possible, with choice and opportunity in abundance.

It's up to you whether you want to sit back and relax throughout the day or get involved in tasks around the home, such as DIY with our maintenance team, laundry with our housekeepers, or food prep with our chefs. Anything is possible, and we actively encourage participation so that everyone feels valued and included during their stay.

  • ‘Having a flexible working culture at Renaissance Care really benefits me. It allows me to study part time at college whilst continuing in my job - I am very grateful for this opportunity and it’s only possible thanks to this progressive approach to creating a balanced working life.’ Lucy, Home Administrator
  • "Whenever I visit I always feel very welcome. I really struggled with the decision to place my mum in a care home but I feel that staff have put my mind completely at ease as I know she is being very well cared for and I cannot thank you all enough." Relative, Persley Castle
  • ‘I love making a difference in people’s lives. Having the opportunity to introduce new experiences or create moments that are meaningful for residents is something special. It’s certainly a job that I’m proud to do.’ Jade, Wellbeing Lead

  • What activities are good for dementia care homes?
    Engaging in gentle exercise, reminiscing sessions, music therapy, and creative pursuits like arts and crafts can be beneficial for those experiencing dementia. Recognising individuality is paramount at Renaissance, so our homes personalise activities based on your unique interests, preferences, and ability.
  • What is an example of meaningful activity?
    Meaningful activity encompasses a range of experiences, from participating in an exercise class to cherishing moments with loved ones, tending to the garden, or achieving personal milestones. It revolves around promoting independence, choice, and facilitating an active and fulfilled lifestyle – any activity that brings the recipient joy can be meaningful.
  • What makes the activity meaningful?
    Meaningful activities engage residents emotionally, mentally, spiritually and physically, with the goal of promoting a sense of purpose and connection.
  • Why are activities important in a care home?
    Activities are important within a care home as they enhance residents' quality of life, stimulate cognitive function, and foster social interaction, promoting overall wellbeing.
  • What is a Wellbeing Lead?
    Our Wellbeing Leads (formerly Activities Coordinators) do more than just plan activities. They connect with residents on a personal level, support them in achieving their goals, and create a fun, social atmosphere where every day brings new possibilities. Their role includes everything from 1-1 and group activities, promoting active and fulfilling lifestyles, day trips, and fostering friendships.

You will be in control of your life and lifestyle here at Renaissance care. We’ll work with you and your family to create a care plan that identifies what’s important and offer you choices in all aspects of your life.


By working together and maintaining the personal connections with the people, communities and interests that matter the most, we believe your time in your new home will be filled with laughter, fun and love.
With an independent and fulfilling lifestyle at the heart of our homes. Renaissance Care residents enjoy a life less ordinary, surrounded with personal connections and choice.
