Meet The Manager
Matthew Peach is Home Manager at Edwardstow Court Care Centre.
Matt is the General Manager at Edwardstow Court. His journey at the home has been one of development and progression since he first started as a Cook in March 2018.
Reflecting on his time at the home, Matt said: “I am passionate about development. The team at Edwardstow Court and the wider OSJCT team have supported me to progress from Cook, to Head Chef, to Bursar, to Bank Care Leader, Deputy Home Manager and most recently, in July 2024, into the General Manager position.”
Having worked in a variety of roles throughout the home, Matt fully understands the support Edwardstow Court provides, and it is something he takes a lot of pride from.
Located in the heart of the Cotswold market town Stow-on-the-Wold, Edwardstow Court is designed with an eye to a traditional manor house, with a blend of Cotswold stone and contemporary construction. Opened in March 2018 Edwardstow Court offers compassionate, individualised residential, dementia, respite and day care for up to 48 residents.

In addition to the first-class care we provide, it's our wealth of facilities and activities that really stand out. The purpose-built home environment has been specifically designed to support the needs of older people and those with dementia, from aiding memory in day-to-day living and reminiscence therapy, to reinforcing personal identity and navigating the home. Carefully chosen artwork, soft furnishings and themed corridors have been selected that are of an era likely to be familiar to our residents or are of meaningful subjects such as music or crafts. This delightful home features small households with eight bedrooms. Every household has its own comfortable beautifully furnished lounge and kitchen dining area, with easy access to assisted bathrooms and cosy sitting rooms. Edwardstow Court offers an outstanding home environment, with a thoughtfully landscaped garden. The sunny courtyard is protected from the wind on all sides around a beautiful pergola with many of the rooms facing onto this. We pride ourselves in the maintenance of our garden and residents get involved and plant out the tubs and planters producing a splendid array of colour and blooms for everyone to enjoy. There are a number of wooden benches so that residents are able to sit and talk to each other in the warmer months and plenty of flat pathways so the whole garden can be accessed. |

| Activities Are So Important |

Activities: Whether it’s wet or dry outside, we at OSJCT feel that activities are essential in providing the best caring environment to live in. Hobbies don’t simply stop when living with us at Edwardstow Court. We have a dedicated Activities Co-ordinator who works closely with our residents to create a programme of fulfilling activities and events, tailored around each resident’s requests, hobbies and interests. The programme of events and activities provide a source of fun and laughter, to help each resident live their life to the full and make new friendships. We are also fortunate to have the support of many volunteers of all ages from the local community, strengthening our links to this thriving market town. Here is a sample of activities on offer:
With so many well-being activities for body and mind on offer, we also recognise that everyone needs some time to honour their spirit with relaxation and mindfulness for personal reflection. The cosy lounges and garden room offer an opportunity for some quiet time or to host family and friends. Events: As we are in the heart of a market town - within a vibrant community, there's never a dull moment. We run regular activities for all to join in:
