Meet The Manager
Katherine Mahoney is Home Manager at West Hall care home.
We are very proud of the five-star accommodation and care that West Hall offers.
Our accommodation standards and features are superior in so many ways but, most importantly, I believe we have built a team to deliver a very special and unique standard of person-centred care and support to anyone who chooses to make West Hall their home of choice.
We also know only too well how difficult and emotional the decisions are for everyone when considering a move to a new home.
Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions you may have.

West Hall Manager
West Hall care home in West Byfleet, Surrey is Anchor's flagship care home.
At West Hall we have created a modern, high-quality care home fit for the demands and expectations of the 21st century. The unique appearance and design, our professionally qualified staff and our state-of-the-art facilities creates a standard of care that is dignified and personal and encourages an active, independent life.
Our listed Manor House has been refurbished and boasts a wide range of facilities, such as a hair and beauty salon, library, quiet room and both a bistro and private dining facility. Situated in the stunning surroundings of the Surrey greenbelt, West Hall also offers extensive landscaped gardens and wonderful, uplifting views.
West Hall’s excellent facilities are complemented by a wealth of meaningful activities and living here you’ll always find plenty to do.
Residents live in small groups in three specially built residences radiating out from the Manor House. Each have large individual bedrooms and shared living and eating areas. The aim is to have a real sense of community for residents at West Hall by offering a wide range of social activities and encouraging independence and choice.
At Anchor, we have a long history of caring for older people and we put our residents at the heart of everything we do. In times of uncertainty, Anchor is a care provider you can depend on. We are proudly not-for-profit with more than 60 years of experience. West Hall, and the specially tailored residential care we provide here, is the result of this approach, carefully conceived with all our experience and passion, to meet the needs and expectations of the next generation of older people.
