Sally Latham is Home Manager at Clayton Manor Care Home.
I am a qualified nurse with 21 years of experience in the NHS and 22 years of experience in the healthcare sector. I have a special interest in dementia care, and worked as a national dementia lead, before coming to manage Clayton Manor in 2020.
Prior to this role, I managed an outstanding-rated home for 9 years. I love my job and work hard to ensure that people living and working here are happy, and safe and have the best we can possibly offer. I also ensure that relatives are informed of what is happening at all times. We operate in a truly inclusive way so everyone feels welcome and supported.
I am very proud to say that I work at Clayton Manor. It is the most homely, caring and exceptional place I have worked in.
Companionship and Community at Congleton Care Home
Long and faithful service is the watchword for Clayton Manor Care Home in Congleton. It’s one of our longest running care homes and has been providing outstanding care for the past 20 years. All staff at our Cheshire care home not only have a wealth of knowledge and experience under their belt, but their compassion and dedication are second to none.
This care home in Congleton offers residential care, dementia care and short-term respite and convalescent care. We focus on the well-being of all those within our care, concentrating on individual needs and preferences. After all, it is their home, and we like to ensure that our residents and their loved ones feel that it is so. Couples and companions are warmly welcomed in our home, where we prioritise their well-being, comfort and happiness together.
Our care home in Congleton sits in a lovely position on the well-known Rood Hill, on the edge of the town, in the heart of the gentle Cheshire countryside, and it’s within easy reach of Macclesfield and Manchester.

| Activities Are So Important |

Clayton Manor has long-standing ties with many local Congleton schools, from nurseries through to sixth forms, which means a busy stream of visitors through the doors. Having children and students around keeps you feeling young at heart! As well as lots going on within the home —Zumba anyone? — there are plenty of opportunities to get out and about and join in with local community events. We have our own minibus, so there’s no excuse for getting aboard and setting off for: • Summer trips to the seaside at Southport I’d go for a mystery trip, myself! We think it important that we feed minds, bodies and souls and the best way of doing that is by keeping active, engaged and involved with the world around us. |
