We like our forays away from our home and visit all manner of local Sunderland attractions – from trips to the theatre, bird watching in the countryside or just a Sunday lunch at the local pub. Our family and residents’ committee plays an important role in choosing activities and steering home life in general.

Enjoy Fish n’ Chips at Our Care Home in Sunderland

Fish and chips are an old favourite – especially if you’re at the seaside! They might also turn up on the menu on a Friday, and if they do, our chef and his team make sure that the fish is as fresh as it can be and that the batter is homemade. And that is true of all our food. It’s fresh, cooked on the premises, locally sourced when possible, and healthily balanced. There is a choice at each meal – we are good at catering for poor appetites and know how to make food look good.

Between meals we are spoiled by the home-baked cakes and pastries (fruit is always available too) and other tasty treats that are served up. Guests are welcome at any time to eat with us, as we like to make mealtimes as sociable occasions as we can. Come and join us – you’ll get a glass of wine too!
