Excelcare supports over 2,500 people, delivering care that is as individual as the people we care for
Excelcare was proudly established in 1989 as a family-run business. We are still family-run to this day, and instill our family values onto our colleagues, the people we care for, their relatives and friends. As an Excelcare-family, we care for each other, offering support, openness and honesty not only to each other but also to the people who live in our care home and their extended family. We welcome each individual to become part of our family, and each treat each person with dignity and respect, regardless of their age, background or beliefs. We provide high quality, person-centred care at 32 individual and unique care homes situated in Cambridge, Essex, London and Milton Keynes. We also operate a home care service which is based in London.

Join us on Tuesday 27th January as Dementia Care Implementation Business Partner, Ann-Marie Harmer, leads a safe and supportive forum in which she will share her experiences of dementia and information about how it can impact us all.
Our dementia support webinars offer an open and honest forum for discussion about supporting people who live with dementia.
We’re absolutely delighted to announce that following a recent inspection by the CQC, St Georges Court Care Home is now rated GOOD in all five key domains!
We’re especially proud of the focus and commitment shown to the Caring domain, as the home achieved an impressive 85% score, just three percentage points short of an Outstanding rating.
This is a huge accomplishment and one we are incredibly proud of.
Thanks to the leadership of Home Manager, Jayne Wardell, alongside the support from team members, families, professionals and emergency services, we’re incredibly proud that the rating now reflects the kind, compassionate care that is delivered to the people who live there.
Across the Excelcare Family, we welcomed the new year with positivity, gratitude, and hope for the year ahead. 🤞🏻
In celebration of this special occasion, we sat down with the people who live in our homes to reflect on the best moments of 2025 and find out their hopes for 2026.
These conversations are always so meaningful — encouraging reminiscence, reflection, and goal-setting, no matter how big or small.
We shared some truly heart-warming moments and are excited to see what the year will bring.
Take a look through the gallery below to see some of the memories and hopes that were shared 💙

✨ Happy New Year! ✨
We wish a happy, healthy, and prosperous New Year to all our families, friends, and followers.
As we step into 2026, we want to take a moment to say a truly heartfelt thank you for your continued support and for entrusting us with the most important responsibility of all – caring for the people you love. Every person who lives in our homes is part of our extended family, and it is a privilege to support them with dignity, kindness, and compassion each and every day.
Looking back over the past 12 months, we are incredibly proud of what we have achieved together. Highlights include maintaining our place in the Top 20 Large Care Providers in the nationwide Carehome.co.uk Awards, and reaching new records in recording zero use of agency team members, allowing us to provide consistent, familiar care delivered by teams who truly know and care about the people they support.
Above all, we are proud of the relationships built, the moments shared, and the trust placed in us by the people we support and their families. These connections are at the heart of everything we do.
As we look ahead to the New Year, we are excited to build on this success, with some wonderful plans on the horizon that we can’t wait to share with you. Thank you for being part of our journey – together, we continue to make a real difference.

This year, Excelcare’s Chief Operating Officer, Sam Manning, set care homes across the organisation a special Christmas Advert Challenge.
Inspired by the festive adverts seen on television – including the much-loved and emotional John Lewis Christmas advert – Sam challenged each home to create their own heart-warming Christmas advert.
Despite this being one of the busiest times of the year, many homes embraced the challenge and produced beautiful adverts that truly showcase the magic, warmth and togetherness of Christmas in a care home. Several also thoughtfully reflected some of the challenges that can be faced during the festive season, making the messages even more meaningful.
The creativity, effort and care shown across all entries was clear to see, and Sam is incredibly proud of every team who took part.
🎬 To watch the adverts, please visit each care home’s social media page using the links below and view the post pinned to the top of their page.
