11.01.2022 I’ve been dining at the same table in the time that I’ve been there. There’s another gentleman, Gus, who has become a close friend. We have a lot of fun swapping experiences and jokes. Gus told me when I first arrived, "You will really like it here!’" And he’s right, I do like it here. It’s because they make us welcome and look after us properly. I’ve been here for 16 months now, I have to accept that I’m now in a home and will be for the rest of my life because I have a cancer and it’s incurable. The nursing staff take pride in understanding what I need. Here I am - happy. I like it here. - Colin Everingham, Arcare Hillside. #arcareagedcare #arcarehillside #arcare #community #connection #relationshipfirst

07.01.2022 Ever wondered why Arcare residents are designed the way they are? Our interior designer, Lily Vaughan, opens up about her creative process. ‘Using warm finishes such as timbers and plush textures I think achieves a homely feel,’ Lily tells us. ‘I like to keep the main finishes simple throughout the facility and then layer with décor and artwork. Textural elements such as cushions and throws help make a space feel warm and inviting. I try to create a space that isn’t cold and... clinical as you wouldn’t have had that in your own home, so why should you have it in your new home?’ Arcare’s interior design team harnesses a wealth of history and knowledge in creating environments for our elderly community and is not afraid of combining this knowledge with contemporary trends and ideas.

Rose has enviable skills as a singer, dancer, gymnast, and magician. "I grew up in showbiz and my mum, who was featured in many musicals, taught me everything."
