About Foxmount
Here at Foxmount, we provide residential care for adults in the heart of Gloucester, Gloucestershire. We support people with a range of needs, including dementia, learning disabilities, autism, mental health conditions, and we also welcome younger adults and those looking for short term respite stays. We know that choosing a care home is one of the most significant decisions a family can make, and we take that responsibility seriously. Our aim is simple: to make sure every person who comes through our doors feels genuinely at home, treated with dignity, and supported to live as well as possible. We get to know each resident as an individual, understanding their history, their preferences, and what matters most to them day to day. For those living with dementia, we provide a calm and familiar environment where routines offer reassurance and our team is trained to communicate with patience and sensitivity. For residents with learning disabilities, autism, or mental health needs, we work closely with each person to understand how they experience the world and how we can best meet their needs in a way that feels right for them. We are proud that our most recent Care Quality Commission inspection rated us as good, which reflects the consistent effort our whole team puts in to maintain high standards of care and support across every aspect of life at Foxmount. Respite care is something we offer with the same level of thought and care as our longer term residential placements. Whether someone is joining us for a few weeks to give a family carer a break, or to recover after a period of illness, we want their time with us to be positive and restorative. If you would like to find out more or arrange a visit, we would love to hear from you.
