Bowbrook is a specialist residential dementia care home and our dedicated caring team delivers personalised, high quality care and support 24 hours a day.
Our modern, purpose-built building provides care across six separate, self-sufficient households where residents enjoy living as independently as possible in a homely environment.
Bowbrook is more than a care home – it is a community where residents feel valued, engaged, and respected. There is always something going on and residents can choose how they wish to spend their time, engaging in group activities or pursuing their own interests in the smaller communal areas or their own private rooms.
Families are always welcome, and our team is here to support them as well, making the transition to Bowbrook as smooth as possible.
At Bowbrook our residents will always be safe, happy, and well cared for.

Activities
Bowbrook has dedicated activity coordinators who carefully plan daily activities and entertainment within the home. We have a café-style community space where we come together for activities as diverse as mobility and movement, yoga, bingo, and arts and crafts.
Dementia-friendly entertainment is provided through live music, interactive storytelling and themed events that encourage participation and reminiscence. There is something for everyone to enjoy and we also provide one-on-one activities for those who prefer quieter hobbies away from the main group.
There is much to see locally and our residents enjoy regular outings to local sites of interest, such as Lichfield Cathedral, the National Memorial Arboretum, Fradley Pool Nature Reserve and garden centres. Fradley, our village, also has a small shopping centre containing a pharmacy, café, shop and takeaway restaurants.
We have strong local connections and have forged mutually beneficial relationships with schools and organisations for intergenerational activities, which are always popular with our residents and caring team.
Food
At Bowbrook, mealtimes are relaxed, social and catered to residents’ preferences.
Rather than adhere to inflexible mealtimes, instead we give residents the freedom to wake up and eat at their own pace, when they feel ready.
We aim to create a positive, stress-free mealtime experience where residents feel comfortable and in control. We encourage residents to eat in the dining room for a social experience, but they also have the choice to eat in their rooms if they prefer privacy or would like some quiet time.
Food is freshly prepared on-site each day and our menu changes each week. Our catering team takes time to learn each resident’s favourite meals, dietary needs and cultural preferences. This ensures that food is not just nutritious but also familiar and enjoyable.
Finger foods and smaller portions are available for those who find it difficult to use cutlery and we can provide specially adapted meals for those who require a modified diet or who have allergies.
Drinks and snacks are always accessible throughout the day, so residents don’t have to wait for set tea times. Relatives and friends are welcome to come and share a meal with us too.
Facilities
Bowbrook has been specially designed to enhance the quality of life for residents living with dementia. The home has been awarded Gold Accreditation by dementia design experts and every element of the environment has been carefully thought through to support independence, safety and comfort.
Care is provided across six separate, self-sufficient households where residents enjoy living as independently as possible. Each household has its own kitchen, dining area, lounge, and quiet space.
Key dementia-friendly features include personalised memory boxes outside each room to help residents to recognise their own rooms easily; contrasting colour schemes throughout to distinguish between areas and rooms; clear signage with words and symbols, see-through kitchen cupboards, and an uncluttered, intuitive layout.
All bedrooms are spacious and en-suite and can be adapted for couples, either as a shared room with a private lounge or separate rooms.
Within Bowbrook we have a main community hub which provides a welcoming social space and where daily activities are enjoyed, as well as a coffee bar, a shop, a hairdressing salon and a guest suite.
We also have beautiful enclosed gardens with easy access, allowing residents to safely enjoy fresh air, gardening, or simply sitting outside, while visiting children are welcome to experience the children’s play area.
Our modern design and facilities ensure that residents feel safe, secure and empowered in their environment, reducing anxiety and enhancing their overall wellbeing.
