^{_{The Abbeyfield Loughborough Society has been providing care and support to the elderly of Charnwood since 1963.}}

We are a not-for-profit organisation and a registered charity and, as such, we reinvest in our homes, staff, and volunteers to make sure our residents are comfortable, safe, and happy.

We specialise in Dementia care and our aim is to prove a safe, dignified, and homely environment which promotes well-being in our residents. We follow the principles of person-centred care, seeing each resident as an individual with unique qualities, interests, preferences, and needs rather than simply focussing on their illness or abilities that they may have lost. 

Our home comprises of two houses on the same site, Westfield House with 31 beds and the newly opened Ingleside House providing a further 33 beds.
