Highgrove House Care Home, Chorley
A warm welcome, a sense of belonging, and care that is personal to you.
At Highgrove House in Chorley, we believe that feeling comfortable and valued comes from more than your surroundings. It is about familiar faces, meaningful conversations, favourite routines, shared moments and having the freedom to be yourself.
Our 43 bedroom home provides a welcoming environment for people requiring general residential and residential dementia care. From the moment residents join us,we take time to understand their interests, routines and life experiences, helping create an experience that is genuinely personal.
Residents are encouraged to enjoy life in ways that suit them, whether joining an activity, sharing a meal with friends, spending time with family or simply enjoying some quiet time.
General Residential and Dementia Care in the heart of Chorley
At Highgrove House, we welcome people with different needs and ensure everyone is treated with dignity and respect. Our general residential care provides day-to-day assistance for those who may no longer feel able to manage independently, while our residential dementia care offers consistency and routines tailored to each individual.
We take time to understand every resident's life story and daily habits. This person-centred approach helps us provide appropriate assistance while respecting each person's individuality. For those living with dementia, familiar routines and an understanding of personal history can help create a more settled and positive experience.
Comfortable Spaces and Personal Touches
Moving into a new environment is a significant step, so creating comfortable surroundings that reflect each resident is important.
Residents can personalise their rooms with photographs, treasured possessions and other belongings that bring familiar memories into their surroundings.
Communal areas provide places to relax, socialise and spend time with friends, family and visitors, while quieter spaces offer opportunities to enjoy some time alone.

Our activities programme caters to different interests and abilities, with options such as arts and crafts, gardening, gentle exercise, quizzes, music, films, games and pamper sessions.
