Summary of services
Allerton Court is a purpose-built, independent, residential comprising of four units. Each unit consists of twelve single bedrooms with en-suite and low facilities. Residents are encouraged to bring their own furniture, and rooms are decorated in different ways according to the residents wishes. Small units promote a homely atmosphere and independence of the residents who are encouraged to move between units and the community lounge - a central, friendly meeting point. The home also provides a pleasant outlook on to the mature garden, which has easy access and is a popular place for residents to sit in the summer months.

Meals are prepared to a high standard with a varied menu providing a number of choices for each meal in order to maintain a balanced diet. Special diets and culturally sensitive needs can be catered for and meals can also be planned and prepared in each of the units, allowing even greater flexibility and personal choice for residents. The services of an optician, chiropodist, dentist, occupational therapist , hairdresser and district nurses are all available, and residents visitors are always welcome in between meal times.
