Our residents are kicking off the festive season in true Christmas style today with a magical performance of Cinderella by the wonderful Carousel Panto troupe.

Laughter, music and plenty of sparkle are filling the home as part of our exciting Christmas activities programme, and we’re so excited to share this joyful moment with everyone.

Looking after someone you love can bring real fulfilment, but it can also be exhausting. That’s why respite care at Little Haven Care Home offers more than time off – it offers reassurance.

You can arrange a short stay from just two nights, giving carers space to rest while their loved one enjoys attentive support in a warm and welcoming setting.

Whether it’s a trial stay to get a feel for the home or a planned break to recharge, the team at Little Haven keeps the process simple and flexible.

Life at Little Haven Care Home is shaped around wellbeing. Our residents enjoy calm mornings, sociable afternoons and the freedom to spend their days in ways that feel meaningful.

From chats over coffee in the lounge to baking sessions, craft activities or a gentle walk in the garden, every day offers something enjoyable. Respite guests are brought into the flow of the home so they feel settled from day one.

A huge well done to Rachel Lewis, our Deputy Manager at Heartland Manor, who took on a 10,000ft skydive to raise funds for Everwood Care Charity. Her goal was £500, and with the help of generous supporters she reached £700, contributing to our wider target of £6,000.

Every donation brings us closer to providing Heartland Manor with a digital activities board. This interactive touchscreen system offers games, music, quizzes and reminiscence sessions, helping residents stay stimulated, connected and entertained. It is already a favourite at Little Haven, and we are excited to bring the same experience to Heartland Manor.

Rachel said that her motivation came from wanting residents to feel respected, listened to and at home. Her leap has helped move us closer to that goal, and we are incredibly proud of her achievement.

👉Regular stays: We welcome recurring or regular stays, whatever the reason, whether it's once a month or once a week.
👉Recovery: Some people require support after a hospital stay. We're here to help.
👉Trials: Moving anywhere is a big life change for anyone of any age. Trials are a great way to ease into long-term residency.

📢Our page is Changing

In the near future, you may notice the name of this page has changed to Everwood Care. Don't be alarmed. We are simply merging the two Facebook profiles for our homes, Little Haven and Heartland Manor, for a:

💚Unified Brand Identity: Everwood Care is one provider, and we want to make it easier for families and loved ones to recognise.

💚Simplified Communication: All updates, news, and announcements will come from a single account, reducing confusion and ensuring followers don’t miss a thing.

💚Easier Access for Families: Families and carers will have one go-to source for information about services, events, and updates across both of our care homes.

If you're already following this page, no action is required. But if you're following our sister page, you will need to follow this one instead before we permanently remove Heartland Manor's Facebook account.

If you have any questions, feel free to comment on this post or contact us on our website: https://everwood.org.uk/contact/
