About Abbotsbury
Here at Abbotsbury, we provide residential care for people in the heart of Southport, Sefton. We are proud to have received a "Good" rating from the Care Quality Commission, which reflects the genuine commitment of everyone who works here to supporting our residents well. We care for a wide range of people, including older adults, those living with dementia, people managing mental health conditions, and individuals with physical disabilities. We also welcome younger adults and offer respite care for those who need a short break from their usual arrangements, or whose families need some time to rest and recharge. Whatever brings someone to our door, we try to understand what matters to them as an individual and build their support around that. Living with dementia can be a particularly challenging experience, both for the person themselves and for the people who love them. We take this seriously and work hard to create an environment where residents feel safe, familiar with their surroundings, and as settled as possible. The same care and thought goes into how we support everyone here, regardless of their needs. We know that choosing a care home is not a decision anyone takes lightly. It often comes at a difficult and emotional time, and we want families and prospective residents to feel genuinely welcome when they come to see us. We encourage visits and are always happy to talk through any questions or concerns without any pressure. Southport is a community we feel very much a part of, and many of our team members live locally. That sense of connection to the area matters to us. We are not a faceless organisation. We are a team of people who show up every day and genuinely care about the wellbeing of those who call Abbotsbury home.
