An Abergele care hone has been chosen by residents and their families as being in the top 20 care homes in Wales.

Church Manor care home has been identified by the leading reviews guide to care homes, carehome.co.uk.

The award is based on reviews of the care home written by their residents, as well as their friends and relatives.

Amanda Hopkins, reviews manager of carehome.co.uk, said: “It is only the residents and their families and friends who can give a real insight into what a care home is like, which is why we use their reviews to find the best care homes in the UK. Choosing a care home can be a time consuming and exhausting process so we hope our awards help make the search easier.

“Church Manor care home has proved it provides a high standard of care and we would like to congratulate it on being a Top 20 care home in Wales! It is a huge achievement to be recognised for being a top rated care home by the people receiving the care.

“The reviews on carehome.co.uk reveal that many care homes are filled with warmth and laughter, where staff do their utmost to ensure residents continue to live life to the full and are treated with dignity and respect.”

Martin Wiles, director of Church Manor, said: “Achieving a Top 20 award in our first year operating a Care Home is a fantastic achievement. It is a credit to the hard work put in, to give our clients the home they deserve. We have a great team, who are dedicated to helping those who need a little extra help. We have lots more we want to achieve and will continue to raise the standard of care and everything that makes Church Manor a real home.”
