"I cannot recommend the Otter team highly enough if you are considering care for a loved one with dementia… We have gone from thinking our mum would be going into a care home imminently, to having mum safe, supported and most of all happy in her own home now. They listen, they communicate brilliantly and they are so adaptable to all the changes that dementia care brings."

It started with caring for my own father
“Care should feel like family — because for us, it started with family.”
We only hire Care Professionals we’d trust with our own families — and our team looks after Jamie’s dad today.

Let myself in with the key safe. She was up and pleased to see me — made porridge and a pot of tea, and she ate well.
The families we look after

"The Carers have all been very compassionate and very supportive during this rapid dementia journey we are experiencing…"
"The care I have received so far is excellent, second to none. The carers are friendly and understanding. Very knowledgeable and appear to have a high quality of training… Highly recommend."
Going above and beyond
Person-centred care isn't a slogan — it's the small, true things our team do every day.

To the top of the hill
For our Otter Happy Hour, one lady asked to be taken to the spot where her late husband's ashes had been scattered, high up by the White Horse. We made it happen.
"It was especially nice as he got to come along."

A morning with the horses
A lady living with dementia had once helped at a local stable. So one morning we took her to see the horses, then for coffee and cake at the farm café. She was calm and happy all morning.

A salon at home
A gentleman who used to go a long time between haircuts now gets a regular trim from Cherie, our Registered Manager — a fresh cut, a good chat, and a bit of dignity.
Let's find the right care, together
